My Kombucha Mushroom

[TheFOIBOS]

what kind of tea do you use?

green tea?

[ConsciousConstruct]

It's not really a mushroom, it's a combination of self sustaining bacteria and yeasts that transform sugar and tea into lactic acids and other enzymes that can work with your body to detoxify and assist in whatever your body can find use for it.

[savvi94]

@tttwas haha thats why i came to this :) S.O.A.D. <3333

[nocturne1980]

Does it matter which flavor of kombucha I start my scoby with? I can't find an original flavored one. Just lemon and ginger.

[nocturne1980]

your scobies look very healthy. I want to grow scobies like yours. do you only use green tea, or do you also use black tea?

[justintrayford]

According to the American Cancer Society there is zero scientific evidence supporting health claims by Kombucha Tea. However there have been reports of serious side-effects, and even several deaths linked to Kombucha tea.

[stikysix]

@justintrayford @justintrayford -no side effects have EVER been documented, yet this culture has been used for over 3000 doc years....Chinese and Egyptian history documents this bacterio-yeast combo. no deaths.., no allergic reactions, just people who are uneducated and speaking from there perspective nether regions, like yourself.

[Rajic777]

It is sooooooooooooo BEAUTIFUL, EMBRACES from Serbia!!!

DIVNO, JAKO LEPOOO! POZDRAV iz Srbije!!!

[Reaper139139]

[flinzz78]

Those are beautiful scoby's, are you in hot climate?

[flinzz78]

Kombucha/Scoby is not a mushroom

[PhuqueU]

why on earth would you use tap water? yuck

See youtube: "The Fluoride Deception"

[danieklerr]

@PhuqueU I am very much in your corner.. I have preached the dangers of Fluoride for many years. I even made a "Pineal Gland cleanser" for my people, a mixture of iodine, melatonin, (monatomic) gold, frankincense and myrrh, that flushes Fluoride from your system and brings back your dreams.

Anyway, I am not advocating the use of tap water for anything, but I have, through my studies, found that the Kombucha scoby has some alchemical method of neutralizing Fluoride in tap water. JustSoYouKnow!

[PhuqueU]

@danieklerr That was funny, I'm not sure if I should take you serious or not. I suspect your people just try to suck the poison out. In any case, I'm sure other people's would. Anyway, can you point readers to any documentation regarding the removal of fluoride by Kombucha?

[kamakawiwaole]

@danieklerr that's interesting. do you have more information about using tap water with kombucha?

[purity4all]

@danieklerr I would like to know about this pineal gland cleanser.Please tell e more.

[jacnal]

How did you make them into layers and so thick? Just leave them be or divide into more jars?

[mowglyana]

every time you make a new batch of tea a new baby scoby grows on top of the old layer so after a while it becomes thicker.

[sapita1129]

Very nice examples of Kombucha mothers and daughters. I have been drinking Kombucha for 2 weeks. My husband for 1 week. He sleeps better and has more energy for work. I found that I sleep better, have no desire for junk food anymore, eat less at a meal, and have more energy during the day. Both of us experience a tiredness every third day...which we attribute to detox...and then, after it passes, we seem to have even more energy.

[alexphyphy]

do you grow it? today my teacher was showing us and teaching us about kombucha. it look really weird and nobody wanted to taste it but i did. so does it give you a lot of energy? do you like it? im going to grow some.

[teasnax]

you are quite welcome, mowglyana! i am glad to share this information and i am glad that i am living proof that it really works and isn't just a "fad.":^) if it's been in practice for at least 2,000 years, how can it be a fad...? here's to your health! namaste

[teasnax]

trable, and my metabolism is revved up yet i don't need to eat more than "feeling satisfied [as opposed to "full"]...." that's all that comes to mind at the moment:^D supposedly, it just makes your body more efficient and acts as a human "mycorrizhae," allowing your body to get the most out of everything you put into it. it costs me about $3 to make a gallon and a half, and i plan to drink it for the rest of my life. i prefer mine at ~70 deg F, and drink it faster than it can "go bad...."

[mowglyana]

thank you for your insightful comment! its great to hear about how what kombucha has done for people, and it looks like it has done a lot for you too!

[Rajic777]

It is sooooooooooooo BEAUTIFUL, EMBRACES from Serbia!!!

DIVNO, JAKO LEPOOO! POZDRAV iz Srbije!!!

[teasnax]

....ailments are from toxicities. when they are being removed manifestations of some start to wane. the "vinegary" taste comes from a few acids made in the ferment; acetic, gluconic, glucoronic just to name a few. i've been drinking it for daily for about 27 months now, and my eczema is gone, my pre-arthritis is forgettable, my g.i. tract is more balanced than ever, i am more level headed, i have more energy [don't need coffee anymore!], i heal faster, my immune system is virtually impene....

[teasnax]

this special symbiote is actually a specific group of bacteria and yeast [about 6 or so].... i don't know them off hand, but there is a science to them and are findable after searching after a few pages ~ you'll find the template out soon, how several of them will display the same info.... the symbiote is actually consumed in microscopic amounts and forms a colony of healthy flora. after a trial period, different from person to person, the body begins to detoxify. it turns out that several....

[kingsomething2008]

what does the tea do?

[deakion2008]

what do you do with the shroom?

[mowglyana]

i only use it to make new tea, about every 10 days...

[deakion2008]

so you don't eat it or anything....is it as good for you as they say....and where can you get this kombucha tea?????

[deakion2008]

what accent does she have???

[lllovellly]

eastern european

[deakion2008]

ooo baby...sexy accent

[BlacklitFloater]

wow, that's nasty and SO COOL at the same time! go Microorganisms and patience!

[joymojo]

Hey do you think you can post the instructions with the exact measurements used? Your mushroom looks really lovely!!!

[mowglyana]

you can hear most of the recipe at 0:18 (that is for your first batch which starts the mushroom).

now i use 3 quarts of water, 5 green tea bags, 1 cup sugar and 1-2 cups of the starter tea already made. next you can either use the baby scoby that formed on top or you can use the whole thing together. hope this helps!

[mowglyana]

i have used it for my indoor plants and none of them have died.....but i can't say for sure if its doing anything good to them either. however, some plants prefer more acidic soil and i am guessing that those plants would benefit the most from it. i would just research more about the herbs that you are growing and see what kind of soil they prefer. thanks for watching!

[MusicMyBlanket]

That looks delicious. I also use a few mothers in my brew. Viva Kombucha :D

[espergeromina]

excelent!

[mowglyana]

thank you :)

[buttbuttballz]

what are you supposed to do with the kombucha once it has been grown? are there any websites for recipes once you have the mushroom?

[mowglyana]

You just use it to make kombucha tea every 7-14 days and then you drink that tea. If you google kombucha there is a ton of information about it on the internet. Also you can learn more about kombucha from videos on youtube (ex. Hannah Crum Expert Village).

[schboy23]

hi can you give me the name of the kombucha tea bottle that you used?

[mowglyana]

Hi, sorry for the delayed response...the bottle is GT's Raw Oganic Kombucha, the Original.

[lifeerrand]

Being a wine brewer,I wanted to know if brewing kombucha tea would have any affect on the two types of cultures? It is in the same house but not the same room. What are your thoughts, if any. And also, is it true that you can start your own mushroom as stated here on you tube. All the ones that I've seen locally have been on thier out.(old,dark brown and thin).

Thanks for your time-

[mowglyana]

Kombucha seems to be very strong and has not been affected by anything in my house. As long as you keep it covered with a clean cloth or paper towel so that it can breathe I think it should be ok. (I use rubber bands to hold it in place). I don't know about the wine though...

And yes, it is true, you can make your own mushroom - which is what I did using raw organic kombucha and fresh sweet tea. The only thing is that it can take a very long time for it to form!

[mowglyana]

I give it away to friends and family, or cut it into pieces end bury it in pots to feed the plants.

[stupidbrain1]

can you drop a daghter or mother culture. because you have so many wheat do you do when you have too much kombucha culture

[foxbow15]

can you eat that:P

[mowglyana]

No,you just drink the tea.

[Acknowledge1]

EPIDEMIC !! It is the newest trend

The mixture of sugar, tea, room temperature, and yeast/bacteria provides an ideal breeding ground for many micro-organisms (some pathogenic) and airborne fungi.

[rahnalan]

(cha means tea in chinese,so putting tea after kombucha is redundant)after drinking kombucha for 2 weeks my arthritus was gone,2 wks later my chronic back pain i had 16rs,was gone, 30days later my 3 ulcers were gone, and 30 days after that,the age spots on the back of my hands, disappeared!!

[mowglyana]

Thanks for the info. I almost lost hope that anyone benefited from drinking kombucha. How much were you drinking per day?

[rahnalan]

i have been brewing 14 yrs, it does amazing things for everyones health! too many to list here, but a few are cures, arthritus, high blood preasure, diabetes, herpes, cancer, liver desease, irritable bowel syndrome.and dozens more!!!

[fireflytattoo]

I have a bunch of questions...it's hard to find the answers I am looking for on the net..unless I am looking in the wrong spots but have been researching for a few days....any good sites you know of?

[AttilaHypnozis]

First, Kombucha is not a mushroom.

[WorkOnWellness]

Awesome video. I'm growing my first one right now. The scoby I was sent is really small so I'm wondering if I should leave this first batch a couple extra weeks to grow my scoby a couple layers?

Rayvin

[mowglyana]

Sure! Mine grew so big because I was traveling a lot and no one was home to make a new batch so it grew to be very thick.

[WorkOnWellness]

Wow! That looks cool.

I want one!

[bakataley]

Pardon me for my ignorance-I am a complete newbie. What do you do with the mushroom after you've grown one? Do you soak it into more tea? If so, do you need to add more unpasteurized kombucha into the new batch of tea? Any informative reply will be greatly appreciated.

[mowglyana]

I use the mushroom on a new batch of fresh sweet tea and add 1-2 cups of the old batch of tea to it. After 7-14 days of fermentation I remove the mushroom, strain the liquid into bottles and repeat the whole process again.

(You want to keep the drink refrigerated)

[fireflytattoo]

I am just so excited!! Here is my answer!! Thank you Thank you!

[littleredmistic]

Do you eat it?

[mowglyana]

No, you can drink the tea and use the mushroom to make more new tea.

[fireflytattoo]

When you brew more tea in a gallon glass jar, do you just put the mother on top and let it brew with cheesecloth on top all over again? Was that the layers you pulled out at the end of the video? How long do you let it brew if you are using the mother on top for a new batch of tea? Where does the vinegar taste come from? Can I use honey or agave nectar?

[rickcoona]

the vinegar taste comes from the active fermentation and it's NOT a "mushroom" it is a colony of yeast and bacteria. use plane white sugar you are feeding the colony so forget the whole 'white death' nonsense remember, the sugar is not for you. anything else and you risk contaminating your colony. as you brew it it will get a stronger acidic taste experiment around to find the flavor you like.

Happy Brewing!

--Rick

[mowglyana]

For a new batch of tea you can use either one SCOBY,or two or all of them. When the video starts u can see the mother is at the base of all of them. The top layer will continue to grow thicker if you leave it undisturbed. I usually let it brew for 10-11 days. One time I used honey and it was a big mistake so I don't advise this (I had to throw everything out).

[alexphyphy]

My teacher said if you use honey, It will taste kind of like honey and we can put the juice from the fruit. Is that true? He's being growing kombucha for and year.

[mowglyana]

Thanks! I barely figured out how to use the editing program...it was tough.

I have no idea where the name comes from originally, but that was how I first found it on the internet and it just stuck with me. Good luck with your own tea, I'm sure it will turn out great!

[cuvtixo]

Those look extremely nice! Presentation is great, and you even use background music very well! Do you think "mushroom" comes from from Russian name chayniy grib, (чайный гриб - 'tea mushroom')??? "Symbiotic Colony of Bacteria and Yeast" SCOBY is more modern, it can refer to vinegar and kefir starter colonies. I'm trying to brew kombucha 1st time. wish me luck!

[mowglyana]

Gracias para la informacion....es muy interesante!

[bettya9]

Thanks for showing the end product for the technique. It looks better than some of the others. How long did you wait for the 3 to form?

[mowglyana]

Thanks for the comment! The big one took one month to form while the other two took about two to three weeks. It hardly ever looks that good after the first week because it hasn't had enough time to grow.

[jhowe9588]

It's not a shroom it's a SCOBY get it right bitch!

[lllovellly]

no need to get rude....damn. I never realized that calling it a mushroom could make someone so angry. HAHAHAH...weirdo.

MUSHHHROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOM
