Kombucha SCOBY | Large Size | 5-Inch SCOBY Mother | Includes 4 Oz Starter Liquid

These are the best scoby’s ever. They are large and thick. My kombucha always comes out perfect every time with these. My only issue is that you only get 1/4 cup of starter tea with each scoby. Which is not enough for me to make a gallon of kombucha. It plainly states that 1/4 cup of starter tea will only make 1/4 gallon of kombucha. Even knowing that I still consider these to be the best scoby’s of choice. Just wish there was more starter tea.

Well satisfied with the quality of this scoby. Yes, as others have said it is on the small size. Its size is 5” as stated in the description which is good for small batches. I normally brew gallon batches so I’ll be raising this baby up to size which isn’t a problem.

This started as a very well packaged small diameter Scoby. The directions are clear and easy. I ramped up the tea amount and the Scoby went nuts. After two batches, now I have three scobies (the Scoby on the left has separated and ready to be put into two jugs.) The Scoby you get is totally live and works great. These jugs are from Dollar Tree and work awesome. Screw caps allow CO2 buildup to escape, but enough to stay to make the tea carbonated. It is great tea. I reccomend buying these scobies! Fun project for the kids. Excellent if you have gastrointestinal problems/flora imbalance. Also great scouting project.

I bought two of these. They both arrived in a condition that was unusable. The packaging was leaking. And the inner foil pouch had delaminated and there was floating pieces of plastic and foil in the bag with the scoby. The first photo is the outer bag. I took a photo to show that the liquid had leaked into the outer bag. The remaining photos are of the bag containing the scoby.

I would like to inform you that your scoby appears to be top quality and free of macroscopic contaminants. But unfortunately, it doesn't work for us, as it comes folded in two parts, and the scoby precipitates and dies. What happens is that the scoby is a biological entity formed symbiotically by unicellular bacteria and yeasts, but they are anaerobic, so they require the surface for the exchange of oxygen and other gases. It is unfortunate that such a good product is of no use to the community. Transporting it in a container with a larger diameter would be our humble advice.
