Review: Perfect every time - 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.
Review: Great company and Scoby - 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.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Scoby not floating, it’s been 18 hrs.  Does it need to be replaced?**
A: Great question, some Scoby sink and some swim. Have no worries if the Scoby sinks. The important thing is that a new Scoby forms on top your brew. 
You should see a new Scoby starting to form within 3-4 days.

**Q: Can this be used to make acv?**
A: Unfortunately, this can not be used to make ACV (Apple Cider Vinegar).

**Q: Is this just the scoby w/o the 10% mature tea that's needed? Video looks like hardly any of the tea so for 1st time need that tea.**
A: Yes its just the Scoby with a very small amount of liquid. We made a starter tea and placed the scoby in it. It grew and we are about to use it for our first batch

**Q: Is the origin of the strain Canada ？**
A: Is the origin of the strain Canada? No it is not.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Scoby around! Buy this one!
*by L***S on May 24, 2024*

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.
