Kombucha Scoby to share

[Pam Genant]

If you would like to try fermenting your own kombucha and need a scoby to get you started just PM me.  I have a few to share.  ;-)  This is my one gallon jug.

I've never done this before, but thought about doing it.  I just started doing milk kefir - is it similar?

Similar in that you get a wonderful drink that is full of probiotics and goodness.  You can easily search kombucha online or look in the kombucha group here on Heal Thyself.  But basically you start out with the scoby, add a brewed sweet tea that has been cooled to room temp.  Let it sit for a couple of weeks (or more depending on how strong you like it) then you strain out most of the kombucha, to drink, and leave the scoby and a little of the kombucha in a jug and start the process all over again. 

It takes a little longer than kefir.

Sorry I keep trying to edit my reply to separate your initial question and my response but it is not formatting.  But you can see the first line is your question, followed by my response :-)

awesome - I'll try it then.  How much?

[Pam Genant]

I just "friended" you, once you accept that you can send me a private message with your mailing address.  I should be able to mail it out by the beginning of the week.  Once you receive the scoby and everything is OK, I will send you my paypal addy and you can paypal me the shipping cost.  How does that sound?  I do need to get mailing envelopes, maybe I will stop and get those today.  :-)

[Christine Conaway]

I have been trying to get started with one for a while.   I'd be very exited  to get one from you. Christine

[Pam Genant]

Christine, I am going to "friend" you here on Heal Thyself.  Once you accept the friend request you can send me a private message with your mailing address.  I hope to get these packaged up today and out in the mail tomorrow, we will see how the day goes.  LOL.  I will message you when the scoby is actually in the mail.  :-)

I do have extra scobys.  But right now I am getting ready for a conference in another couple weeks so am really crunched time-wise.  After the conference I will post again and will be better able to get mailing addresses and get them in the mail.

Thanks so much Pam, I look forward to hearing from you after the conference!
