There are a variety of brands/flavours to choose from. But you can also make it yourself, which is much cheaper and more rewarding ;) Danielle @ Poor and Gluten Freehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09836360004405159423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835821377773395716.post-57602022364121425042013-01-23T09:50:02.717-08:002013-01-23T09:50:02.717-08:00I have never heard of kombucha.

Also, if you read the very detailed directions on Kombucha Kamp (http://www.kombuchakamp.com/2011/01/kombucha-carbonation-for-beginners.html) they mention filling your jars almost to the top and putting on a lid = no scoby on top. So I don't think you need the scoby on there anymore.

I will definitely have to try it. <br /><br />I haven't brewed enough to say for sure, but I'm pretty sure that letting it ferment at least 10 days, then double fermenting it adds carbonation (fizziness). Here's a great article that I just found on creating fizz from Kombucha Kamp that explains it - http://www.kombuchakamp.com/2011/01/kombucha-carbonation-for-beginners.html<br /><br />Sounds like you need to be really careful with the double fermenting so that things don't explode on you!

Seriously.<br />Does your kombucha always come out fizzy? Mine rarely does and I just can't figure it out. I use just black tea (taste preference) and sugar. My scobys grow thick and healthy and the kombucha tastes great... but it's got little bubble to it.
