DIY Kombucha Class: The Mighty Booch

How to make kombucha



1.5 hours Class size 12 to 40 guests     $80

Curb that expensive store-bought kombucha habit by learning how to brew your very own. This inexpensive and all-natural carbonated drink is great for your body, mind and soul. Join the Fermented Mumma as she details the process and benefits of fermentation, the problems with pre-packaged kombucha, and the endless flavour combinations for your custom booch.

The Fermented Mumma will introduce you to a SCOBY (which stands for symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast), the low-pH “mother” from which your kombucha will spring. First, black tea and sugar are brewed together to make the starter tea. This is then poured over the SCOBY, covered in a cheesecloth, and left to ferment. The yeast consumes the sugar, excreting alcohol, which is processed by the bacteria into vinegar, providing a natural carbonation and tangy zing. New SCOBY babies form in the process, and you’ll be taught how to love and care for your gelatinous new friends.

You’ll leave with a 3.4-litre jar of your very own kombucha ready to ferment, along with hard- and soft-copy materials to help you on your way to becoming a future kombucha producer.
