KOMBUCHA CULTURE (SCOBY)

Sold Out $19.99

Please note that this item is only available in North America.

Kombucha is a living drink made by fermenting sweetened tea using a Kombucha culture, or SCOBY, which stands for symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast. As the SCOBY “digests” the sugar in the tea, it generates a variety of probiotics, enzymes and amino acids, turning the initial tea into a nutrient-packed, tangy, effervescent health drink that’s also deliciously addictive. Our Kombucha culture is the first step to brew your own Kombucha drinks at home. Start your own Kombucha at home with our ready-to-use SCOBY.

Once your SCOBY is well acclimated and kept in a healthy environment, its production is endless and can be kept for years and multiple batches - Don’t hesitate to spread the love of home-brewing, share your SCOBY with your circle so they can start their own culture!

Give the best environment to your SCOBY with the Mortier Pilon Kombucha brewing jars!

Kombucha Culture (SCOBY) (4 oz /114 g.)

How to Use

Helping your SCOBY Acclimate to its New Environment:

Before you can brew your first batch of Kombucha, make sure your SCOBY settles in its new environment. Attempting to immediately start making large quantities of Kombucha with a new SCOBY could result in your colony of microorganisms dying, so make sure to take things slow at first.

In order to avoid contamination, it is key to first clean your Mortier Pilon Kombucha Crock. To sterilize the jar:

Clean by hand using warm water and vinegar.
Leave it to dry overnight on a dry, clean towel. Avoid touching the inside of the jar, including with the towel.

Warning: Make sure you only pour room-temperature liquid in your Mortier Pilon Kombucha Crock.

These next few steps will allow your SCOBY to truly settle into its new environment:

Heat 4 cups (1 L) of filtered water. Place 3 bags of organic tea (preferably black or oolong) in the hot water.
Add ½ a cup (125 ml) of white sugar (avoid brown sugar and honey). Let the mixture cool (your SCOBY doesn’t like the heat!).
Pour room-temperature sweetened tea into your sterilized Mortier Pilon Kombucha crock.
Add ½ a cup (125 ml) of distilled white vinegar.
Place your SCOBY in the jar; make sure to include the juice from the sachet as well. Cover and let sit for 2 to 3 days.

Once your SCOBY has settled into its new environment, it can start producing larger quantities of Kombucha.

You can now start making Kombucha following instructions provided with your Mortier Pilon Kombucha jar.
