How To Make Kombucha With Fruit
Rose puts on a clinic and shows us how to make kombucha with fresh (or frozen) berries. If you want more detailed instructions or recipes we recommend you have a look at a great video by the homesteading family at • How to Make Kombucha: ...
The awesome song is Texas River Song performed by Little Fire (Dave and Shoshanna Godber). check them out at shoshannagodber.com/

The last video I watched he said that they aren’t monetized, so I he isn’t pressured to up load constantly.
Rose impresses with each new video. She has got unseen talents and a wonderful tolerant attitude to Jeff's loaded questions. Rare in the 21st century, off the grid is no doubt a great help too in keeping sane. It all makes sense, unlike lives elsewhere, meaningless and superficial. How do you manage to keep others from disturbing your well balanced world?

i'll tell you you have scored big time with your wife she is an absolute wonder woman
Remember is she just a "mom". What a great woman. You are so lucky mr. Burkinshaw.😊😊😊
This was very calming to watch. Perhaps I should make my own kombucha.
I'm new to your channel and binging away. Jeff, your one liners keep me rolling 🤣 "well, you and I have different plans" 🤣
"I'll always eat your berry chunks" -Jeff ... Yup. That should be on a t-shirt.
The way you are living, and raising your family, is so beautyful. I wish I had the courage to do as you have. Your channel and family are inspiring to others. Keep up the good work!
Oh, I need to stir my tea to get fizzy in all my bottles. Thanks for the video.

You guys live the best life I've ever witnessed. The life I dream of. And I agree that you, dude, have a fantastic woman and, if I can say this without sounding like an asshole, your daughters are just amazing. I'll just keep watching and laughing - and learning - and if I can live even nearly like you guys (southern Spain - a whole world and climate away) I'll be a happy man. Thank you, big time.

A very well done video. I learned something new today. Thank you...
The best family ever. God bless
Y'all make me smile ! Thanks
Nice Jeff & Rose! We make a gallon jar every 4 days, I like it but Jennifer doesn't...more for me!! We have 3 jars fermenting all the time and we harvest and make a fresh batch every 12 days. We rarely do a second ferment with fruit as we don't have the flip top bottles. Thanks.
I love watching you guys you make me laugh you guys are very funny what a loving family great job keep up the great videos
Rose is one in a million.
To start the first batch I use 5 tea bags to a 1 gallon of water, steep and cool, then dissolve 1 cup of Organic Sugar into the tea, when it cools (to room temperature) add the SCOBY then cover the jar with cheesecloth (it needs the air). Sit that in the pantry (warm, dark place) undisturbed for the next 2 - 4 weeks. After that time, bottle the Kom with fruit (enough to cover the bottom of the bottle) set in the pantry for a few days, test over the sink. Once bubbly store in fridge to stall fermentation (so they don't explode). I saved store bought Kombucha bottles as I was sampling their flavors - Tart Cherry is my favorite. Remember not to let any metal come in contact with the SCOBY or the tea mixture (use a wooden or bamboo spoon). The SCOBY will gobble up the sugar and produce a yummy fermented drink - great on the rocks with a twist (very little alcohol < 1% and terrific health benefits).
god bless you and your beautiful family. the true american dream right there.

Honestly you've got more then 2 mothers there. I've heard you can make something like a fruit leather out of it. I feed the extra mother to the chickens cause its a good probiotic type things going on in it. How I start kombucha ....is boil my 4 qt. Kettle of water then stir in 3/4 cup organic evaporated cane juice until dissolved . Then I add whatever kind of tea I want. I even buy the Walmart peach (tea bags) tea. Like about 5 or 6 tea bags to the boiled water and let steep until it's room temperature. Then I have my clean glass gallon jar ready . 1st I pour in the store bought kombucha then my tea .stir with a wooden spoon. Cover with a cloth and a rubber band to keep the cloth on . Setting in a warm place out of direct sunlight. The 1st time I make a new batch that has to format it's own scoby I leave that tea sitting more then a week. More like 3 week maybe. By then it's got a nice but thinner scoby. Then you can proceed with the rest as you see in this video.

Beautiful scobys
I love rose
Always I enjoy the company of the family. What is the name of the song in the back ground? Vary soothing.
I loved this! You need to do more of these types of videos. Must feel good to use your own honey.
Scoby jerky/bacon is a real thing! There are recipes for scoby jerky...I know I’ve seen them somewhere online. Now I want to make kombucha again!
I tried making Kombucha years ago but this method is more interesting.
I brew kombucha - it's actually easier to add the sugar after the tea is steeped and cooled. Sugar feeds the SCOBY (symbiotoc colony of bacteria and yeast) that produce the fermentation (bubbles). Fruit will do this sufficiently without adding honey (would be too sweet for me), to each his own. Love the music. I've also used cranberries, elderberries and dark cherries. I don't strain the fruit so raspberries aren't my favorite because they turn to mush. If you get bits of SCOBY in the bottles and leave them long enough they will grow new SCOBY's the diameter of the top of the fluid in the bottle. If you don't have a spigot in your big jar, just use a glass cup. Note: don't use metal in the processing.
Scoby (mother) is very healthy for you to eat but not plesant. Dogs on the other hand, love scobies and the leathery texture. It's also very healthy for them. You can call it a mother being it does come from apple cider vinegar with the mother. Love your vids!
Frozen berries are juicier because when frozen the moisture expands and crushes the cell walls of the berries so when they thaw there is more available juice. I have found in making wine the same holds true.
When you freeze fruit the moisture inside of them turns to micro ice crystals which lead to micro perforations that, when the fruit is thawed, causes juices to flow more freely
Music wawwo great vedios
yes tea placenta is what i was thinking great video
A possible cherry tree/shrub to add to your flavors. Romeo & Juliet will grow in zone 3, if you've not already tried. I just found your content, I quite enjoy 😊.

Lol. Hipsters do love kombucha.!
You can totally made Mother Jerky! My son makes several flavours of SCOBY jerky.

so honey doesn't kill of the bacteria of the scoby?? huh everywhere i have seen says honey is a no no. Great video as always!

Raw honey can kill the bacteria of the scoby during the first ferment, so I use cane sugar. The second ferment is done in individual bottles with fruit without the scoby, and so therefore I use honey.

honey is antibacterial so it would probably not get fuzzy or have all the good bacteria in it

when i was a lad dad & i decided to make Nettle Beer the bottles had screw on cap' s when the time was up he diced to open one he decided to gip it in his teeth to unscrew it well it Took me half an Hr to wake him up . i thorts he had snuff it was so lowd & the blood was evry wear it had knots about 6 of his teeth out . avenchely he came round & we fixist him up . not as much blood as the day he cut of his 3 fingers & top of is thrum though that's a story in it's self but Needles to say he wouldn't touch the natal bear them i could net open i throw bricks at & the went of like grands. but i must say it was a lovely drink The 60 bottles lasted me a long time a cross better ginger bear with out the ginger sweet & fizzy in fact i think had we put in ginger it would have surpass ginger beer. But as it was it was more like sweet Campaign. i nicknamed it the poor mans champers. les England to make it you cut of all the top's of the nettles with the clump's on.
So technically, what ya'll are calling the "mother" is actually called a pellicle. The "mother" is the liquid after fermentation. The SCOBY (symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast) is suspended in the liquid...which is why you can take just the liquid and a new pellicle will form. The pellicle is made by the mother... it is not the mother. :) Enjoyed the video!

Do you have a video about making the Mother?

How long does it rake to get your scoby that big
Have you ever tried making a natural berry syrup (just reducing the berries over heat and mushing them) and then syringing it into the bottles? Right now I make it the same way, with frozen fruit, but I've heard you can use a concentrated syrup as well. Great idea with the honey though! I might try that sometime.

Hi, does it taste like fruit flavoured tea?
How much tea to water ratio do you use for the tea?
Do you have any issues with the fruit in the bottle getting mold? Just started my 2nd fermentation with some cherries and since some are floating on the top I’m worried about mold. Thanks!
