Can you repeat the question

>>14237535
Thats a huge diaphragm

>>14237535
Nah but more often than not the amount that's worth the effort to make is going to be way more than you'll want

>>14237535
>Female soy face

Yeah that shit is poison dawg

>>14237207
No its a great idea I am having fun with it, just going a mushroom in a bottle.

There are ZERO nutritional benefits to drinking it, and if you dont care for it properly you can seriously fuck yourself up.
To me, it seems like something you should maybe buy once to taste it(it isnt good), and then drop the idea of every drinking it again, because again, there are NO HEALTH BENEFITS to it. Your body processes it exactly like water. It aint green tea, or some other 'super food' BS that atleast raises your odds of fighting off a cold by 0.03% while still tasting bad...

>>14237535
Used to do it, it's a bit of work. That mother is slimy as fuck and kind of creepy when it grows to a certain size

>>14237989
>NO HEALTH BENEFITS
probiotics are good. I guess they changed up your shit cycle and you freaked out or something?
> Your body processes it exactly like water. It aint green tea
You sound like a green tea merchant

>>14238005
No, i think drinking tons of tea is also BS.
I drink water... Thats it.... Cause 99/100, its the best thing for you.

its basically slightly more complex juice

>>14238005
what do probiotics actually do to people that are otherwise healthy that is measurably beneficial?

>>14238036
They help keep your gut bacteria healthy and at high levels, which helps with digestion.
I'm pretty sure there are no probiotic benefits to kombucha though. I dont remember where i read it, but even new age hippies were very clear that its something to drink ONLY for the flavour. If you need probiotics, eat yogurt(which also has fats and proteins, and if its compromised you'll be able to very clearly see/taste it. Which is not the case at all with kombucha. Risking botulism for something that best case scenario, tastes like shit, seems like a stupid proposition)

I've been brewing the past half year. Its fun and pretty easy. If you like the taste of kombucha, give it a shot. Makes for a bomb ass mixer.

>>14237535
I don't really see a point when you can get kombucha in a bottle anywhere these days. If you're putting that much effort in, at least make something novel like mead.

>>14238005
>>14238023
Probiotics are real but unless you just had a week of food poisoning clear up and you're still feeling sick after antibiotics, probably pointless.

Kombucha's main health benefits come from all the cool acids (e.g. acetic) mostly- probiotic benefits are secondary at best.

It's not even kombucha. We adopted the word for the wrong thing and never corrected our mistake.

It's like brewing beer for poofs and women.

>>14239663
please explain

>>14239663
Whats the correct word?

>>14237535
same energy

>>14237535
It's a good idea if you enjoy the taste of kombucha.

Done right, it's easy and efficient. I brew using a continuous brewer, so I always have a steady stream coming in. My bottles are cheaper, fizzier, and tastier than store bought. I just throw my excess fruit in the bottle and let it go. I find strawberry + vanilla makes a delicious and complex soda.

Kombucha is an excellent alcohol substitute, too. Friends enjoy when I show up to a BBQ with a huge bottle of homemade booch. Much less harsh than drinking IPAs. It looks impressive and tasty if you bottle it in clear glass.

>>14237632
What are you on about you just brew tea then forget it for 2 weeks

>>14238055
>Botulism from aerated foods
Retard alert

>>14239663
Seconding this you can't just make a claim without explaining it >>14239861 >>14240591

>>14241301
Kombucha is a Japanese seaweed drink. There are different words for fermented tea in various languages, none of which I remember.

>>14241301
Look it up yourself retard

>>14238005
lol just stop it with this dumb shit. komboucha is just a lighter version of wine for white women to drink during the day

>>14238058
the bottled stuff is less than 0.5% abv to keep it non-alcoholic. the store stuff is like odoulls

bullshit beverage

>>14241091
>Being a pedantic ass
I'm sure people will be very sad when you poison yourself with contaminated kombucha. But you'll have the last laugh, since it wont be from botulism, just one of the many other deadly bacterias... And in the end, that one minor victory makes up for your pointless death right?

>>14239663
Faggot

>>14237989
Mmmm. I dont think you've had enough experience or research to speak with authority on this topic.
I always have a comfy/healthy stomach feeling after I drink it. Its really good for an upset stomach or general gastric distress.
Its also super easy to make, and if you fuck it up and are unable to notice, youre probably already worth dying anyways.

Id recommend making it if you enjoy trying new things, its not hard at all.

>>14243192
So do I, but it's the same feeling I get drinking plain soda water.

>>14237535
No, it's disgusting.

Is it pickled pancakes?

>>14237535
your better off making prison wine

>>14237535
is this the karen version of the soyboy and the Nintendo switch?

>>14241523
why use a technical term at all if you're going to call other people pedantic when they explain to you that you're using it wrong?

>>14237535
>touching the scoby with your disgusting bare hands
Way to ruin it stupid roast whore
Hope you like covid flavored handbucha

>>14237535
>this fucking face

I am sick and tired of seeing peoples goddamn tongues. Shut your cock gobbling mouth

>>14237535
>looks gross
>smells gross
>tastes okay at best
>spreads mold all over your kitchen
Not worth it.

>>14240895
Holy fuck that last paragraph was bad. I bet your friends hate you

>>14243192
Lol, advice on 4chan that could lead to death from a faggot who talks down to others while offering nothing beyond positive vibes.

>>14244553
This.
But hey, anything to thin out the snobbish at home cooks who post those stupid 5 minute craft vids on their Facebook or Instagram is probably a net gain for society.

I brewed beer for years, I have made all manner of pickles, but this shit looks like it could go pathogen on your ass in no time.

>>14237535
just buy it from a company man
