Got the full set, all 4 scoby,s.
Not sure about the taste of the Milk Kefir
The kombucha is still brewing.
The water kefir tastes good, grains double in size every 48 hours.
The Ginger Beer taste excellent, cant wait to be pumping out some real volume.
 
Interested in the ginger beer scoby but just wondering how much effort is required to keep it alive when not brewing, I can't see myself doing more than 1-2 brews a year.
 
Its something you make a litre or two per week, depending on how much grain you have.
But, it can be frozen, dried or stored in the fridge for a short time, or so i have read.
 
Thanks bro, there seems to be very little info re. maintaining the scoby but think I will just dive in and see.
 
We currently have three SCOBY threads going, a new direction for AHB?
Might be a case to have a SCOBY sub forum in Non Beer Brewing.
 
I know this is an old thread. But did anyone have any luck importing the ginger beer plant?

Not entirely confident with starting my own wild ferment and not sure if I want to have $30 worth of scoby stuck in quarantine..

Thanks

I'd like to know if anyone tried the Kombucha SCOBY for Ginger Beer? My wife literally has dozens of them.
 
I got a ginger beer SCOBY from Yemoos and it arrived relatively quickly and healthy.
