STEP 1:
Prepare honey green tea. Steep 4 tea bags / 12g loose green tea leaves in hot water for 2 - 3 mins. Remove tea bags/strain loose tea from the liquid. Dissolve half cup raw honey in cooled green tea.
STEP 2:
Transfer honey green tea to the brewing vessel. Top up cold or room temperature water to a total of up to 2200ml, to cool the tea down further.
(too hot temperature will kill all the good stuff in the kombucha culture.)
STEP 3:
Transfer Jun scoby and minimum 250ml of starter liquid into the glass container.
STEP 4:
Cover and allow to brew for 5 - 10 days in room temperature, away from sunlight.
STEP 5:
After 5 - 10 days, or when you feel ready do a taste test. If it's too sweet for you, allow to ferment for a few more days. Taste again, until pleasant to you.
Baby Scoby
STEP 6:
When culturing is complete, retain Scoby + 200ml to 250ml of finished Jun kombucha tea as starter liquid, for the next batch.
