More notes on Kombucha brewing

I usually remove no more than 3/4 out of the brewing vessel. Some of the beneficial components take up to six weeks to develop.

Every ten batches I remove everything from the brewing container and wash it with white vinegar, then rinse it with filtered water, reintroduce what was in the brewing container and start a fresh batch.

I remove old SCOBIES (the bottom ones) of the SCOBY after six batches, I usually leave the three youngest ones (the top ones)
