So I tried making Kombucha (Apple Cider Vinegar? Not sure what to call it) using only two ingredients: apple juice, and my kombucha culture.

Recipe:

  • Like 3.6L or so of apple juice
  • 400ml Kombucha starter

Add both ingredients in a sanitized (use StarSan or similar) glass jar, let sit for 3 days then begin tasting until it to your liking. When its reached that level, bottle and let it carbonate for about 3-4 days.

To my surprise, it worked absolutely fantastic! Not only does the kombucha culture seem to thrive in the apple juice base (ferments quicker than normal for some reason), but the end product is delicious. A nice mix between sweet apple juice and tart apple cider vinegar while having a light carbonation.

10/10 would recommend.

    Here’s the nasty looking pellicle the brew produced lol, again it ferments really fast. The white pellicle towards the edges was created in 2 days.
