Hello –
Loved this workshop I attended a couple weeks ago, and excited about my first batch. Question – I am on my 2nd fermentation, and notice that a small scoby is forming in the capped bottle you provided. I used a strainer, and put it back in the bottle, and another scoby is forming. What should I do?
Thank you.
Marianne
Thanks, Marianne! So glad you enjoyed the workshop. It’s not uncommon for a small SCOBY to form even in the second fermentation. It won’t hurt anything, so you can either leave it in or strain it out. Feel free to take it out before you drink it. Let us know if you have more questions!
