I’ve been brewing Kombucha for a little over a year now. This journey started when I was given a scoby by a friend, and I hit up good old Google for some advice. Most articles explained that Kombucha scobys need an extremely bacteria free environment to flourish, and I took that advice very literally.
Medical gloves, medical grade sanitizer, gallons of vinegar, bleach, you name it...I bought it all. To say I was being OCD about keeping my scobys clean and safe is a dramatic understatement. I even figured out the coolest space in my refrigerator to keep the scobys happy.
One day, I had my scoby-giving friend over. I over-zealously showed her all of surgical-grade Kombucha supplies, and she just starts laughing at me.
“I keep mine in the linen closet near the cat litter”, she said.
I asked, “You don’t need to be that careful?”
“No.”, she said, laughing at me.
I moved them to my linnen closet, and they’re doing so well, they formed a whole other scoby on top in the shape of the container. I’ve never seen a square scoby before, but here you go, for your viewing pleasure:
Hi there,
I am too lazy to go to google or youtube for the recipe but I would really appreciate if you can share the recipe with me or a video will do. I am somebody with the common interest.
Thanks!

I’ll be making a second post on how to grow your very own scoby. It’s really simple, it just takes having patience.
