This morning I bottled nine crocks of kombucha while enjoying Herman Dune‘s Next Year In Zion. This round ought to have an interesting energy. It’s been brewing for sixteen days, so it’ll have some bite. Instead of bottling each crock individually, I combined four crocks at a time in a new 2-gal glass jar (that I bought for veggie ferments)–to possibly even out any *really* strong crocks–and then bottled. I forgot about Crock 9 until the end, so that one was bottled on its own.
The first fifteen bottles (#s 32-45, plus one unnumbered) I left plain. Bottles #46-54 I flavored with about one tablespoon of canberry/orange/ginger juice (see photos). Jars #55-60 I flavored with C/O/G juice and sweetened with about 1/2 teaspoon buckwheat honey. Jars #61-72 I flavored with about 1/4 teaspoon of ginger juice.
I’m aiming to bottle again on the 15th…that’ll give it eight days.
