We are now brewing 35 grams of Tie Kwan Yin Oolong in a gallon of distilled water. After steeping 30 minutes we transfer it to our big jar with 1 2/3 cups of sugar. After letting it cool we add 1 1/2 additional cups of water, 2 cups of starter buch and transfer the SCOBY. Our fermentation time this time of year is nine days.
We harvested this on 3/26 and flavored it with 1/3 cups of concord grape juice and 1/2 tbsp of sugar. We also added 1/2 tbsp of chia seeds to 4 of them as an experiment. We usually ferment the grape in bottles for 5 days.
