<strong>Kombucha</strong> <strong>History</strong><br />
<strong>Kombucha</strong> <strong>History</strong>: <strong>Kombucha</strong> is fermented tea and sugar. <strong>Know</strong>n<br />
as a SCOBY- Symbiotic Colony <strong>of</strong> Bacteria and Yeasts. It produces<br />
a semi-sweet, semi-sour, slightly carbon<strong>at</strong>ed and pleasant tasting<br />
tea. The Ancient Chinese referred to this elixir as the Tea <strong>of</strong><br />
Immortality.<br />
Is <strong>Kombucha</strong> Safe??<br />
Yes. But it may not be for everyone. Pregnant, nursing, infants,<br />
those with compromised immune systems, Some people become<br />
f<strong>at</strong>igued and quite tired - just the opposite <strong>of</strong> wh<strong>at</strong> the majority<br />
experience. <strong>Kombucha</strong> Tea - like any food - may suffer from<br />
contamin<strong>at</strong>ion, poor hygiene, or a ferment gone wrong. Thankfully<br />
no one has ever died or become seriously sick from drinking<br />
kombucha tea.
How is <strong>Kombucha</strong> made??<br />
<strong>Kombucha</strong>, also known as the Manchurian Mushroom, is a simple<br />
n<strong>at</strong>urally fermented culture, made with w<strong>at</strong>er, sugar and tea. Left<br />
alone this w<strong>at</strong>er, sugar, and tea mixture will n<strong>at</strong>urally ferment from<br />
any <strong>of</strong> the numerous airborne and ground organisms th<strong>at</strong> should<br />
find such a paradise. Most <strong>of</strong> the time mold results. The origins <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Kombucha</strong> has been <strong>at</strong>tributed to China - famous for its teas, (Cha)<br />
Wh<strong>at</strong> makes <strong>Kombucha</strong> unique is the domin<strong>at</strong>ion <strong>of</strong> a few selected<br />
airborne Acetobacter with comp<strong>at</strong>ible yeasts, which crowd out and<br />
domin<strong>at</strong>e the stagnant, or left-over, or forgotten tea.
Ginger Beer Recipes<br />
§ Peel and gr<strong>at</strong>e the fresh ginger using a box gr<strong>at</strong>er. You want<br />
<strong>about</strong> 1/4 cup <strong>of</strong> gr<strong>at</strong>ed ginger.<br />
§ Add the cream <strong>of</strong> tartar (1/2 teaspoon), lemon juice (1/4<br />
cup), and ginger to a large pot.<br />
§ Add 4 cups <strong>of</strong> w<strong>at</strong>er, and bring the mixture to a full boil.<br />
§ Turn the he<strong>at</strong> down to medium, add the sugar and stir until all<br />
<strong>of</strong> the sugar is dissolved.<br />
§ Add the rest <strong>of</strong> the (cold) w<strong>at</strong>er to the pot (5 cups) and allow it<br />
to cool to around 75 degrees Fahrenheit (23 degrees Celsius).<br />
Add the yeast (1 teaspoon), stir well.
§ Cover the pot with a kitchen towel and place in a warm, dark<br />
part <strong>of</strong> your house for 3 hours. The mixture should smell<br />
gingery and yeasty!<br />
§ Using a fine strainer, strain<br />
the liquid into a large<br />
pitcher to remove all the<br />
bits <strong>of</strong> ginger.<br />
§ Pour the brew into a clean 2<br />
-liter plastic bottle (empty<br />
soda w<strong>at</strong>er bottles work<br />
perfectly, and you can also<br />
use 2 one-liter bottles) but<br />
do not fill up the bottles all<br />
the way because the<br />
ferment<strong>at</strong>ion will yield<br />
carbon dioxide.<br />
