== First fermentation == Tools: * Large jar for brewing *Cloth to cover the jar *Elastic bands to hold the cloth in place *Large containers for holding water *1L container for starter liquid *Metric measuring cups *Water filter *Wooden spoon *Stove *Pot for boiling Ingredients for a 1L batch: * 200mL starter kombucha liquid *640mL filtered water for filling the batch *160mL water for tea *50g raw sugar *4g black tea (I use 2 Lipton black tea bags) Multiply these by the number of litres you're making. Instructions: # Wash the brewing jar using hot water and a cloth, no detergent or vinegar #Refrigerate and filter the filler water # Boil tea water on the stove # Put the tea in the water # Close the lid on the pot and let it brew for 10 minutes # Add the sugar to the tea # Stir tea with wooden spoon until the sugar is dissolved # Pour chilled water in to the large jar # Pour tea in to large jar # Wait 5 minutes for the tea to cool # Pour starter liquid in to the jar # Cover the jar with cloth and elastic bands #Write down the date on the jar with a marker Exact measurements don't matter that much, just approximate. Do make sure to round down instead of up so you don't make too much liquid. This takes around 30 minutes.
