i'm sure Imago or Anx already started a thread on this subject, but obviously i missed it.

last night i grabbed a bottle of this thinking it was regular tea, boy, was i shocked! the taste isn't that great, but not that bad either for what it is. i don't know if it was psychological or not, but i immediately felt its supposed effects.

Any drinkers?

Kombucha is wonderful.

Good stuff

I it!

yeah, its like vinegar

i havent had any in a while though

actually i started a thread about it long ago

The cordial is great too -- just add water

gross, it tastes like fermented piss.

well. i don't know what fermented piss taste like, but it does taste like some kind of witches brew.

I've actually thought about making kombucha at home. But every time you make a batch, a new culture grows - and I hate the thought of throwing it away or having to get a friend to take it.

It'd be like one of those "friendship bread" things. I hate shit like that.

i read that it's kind of dangerous to try and brew it out home.

i wouldn't know what those taste like either. i'm sure a lot of other orgers here would, though.

It's really not - as long as you take proper precautions with respect to cleanliness and get your culture from a reputable outfit.

Like most fermentations, kombucha will give you very definite signs if it's gone bad (the culture will become discolored, it'll stink, etc).
