Select a Brewing Location

Whether you’ve gotten your SCOBY or not, today’s chapter will walk you through the steps one by one. It’s a great dry run so that on your real brewing day, you’re prepared for success! 🙂

One last thing to do before we get started:

Select a Brewing Location

Here are the factors you want to consider:

  • The ideal temperature for brewing Kombucha is about 78 degrees (72-84 degrees)
  • Kombucha should be brewed out of direct sunlight (not an issue with porcelain continuous brewers)
  • Kombucha requires airflow, so no closed cabinets
  • Kombucha should not be disturbed during the initial 7-day brewing process
  • Possibilities include an out of the way pantry shelf, on top of the refrigerator, or a back corner of your counter
  • Bad ideas include under the sink (too damp), any tightly enclosed space (no airflow), or next to a window (sunlight, hot/cold)
  • Trust these guidelines and you will find a location that meets your needs
