I purchased a mostly dried scoby from an online retailer that specializes in fermented food supplies.
The first 2 times you make kombucha with it, you add a little white vinegar to the mix, then by the third time you are supposed to just add a little of the last batch of kombucha.
In the first couple of batches, no new scoby was made, but I think that's not unusual with this setup. I'm on the third batch, and I have something on the top of the kombucha, but I'm not sure if it's good or bad. It isn't fuzzy or anything.
a few days ago.
Now, I disturbed it the other day to get a little kombucha out to taste and test the acidity.
So, do I need to get rid of this stuff or is it a good thing?
