Ferment This! Kombucha

You could buy a $4 bottle of kombucha, or you could make your own for pennies. It's simply sweetened black or green tea with a culture added to it, and we can make both a primary ferment and a secondary one with your favorite fruit juice (yum! Blueberry kombucha!) We'll discuss it's fascinating history, how to make a decaf version, the right glassware and what the heck is a SCOBY? (It's provided if you need it, or ask a friend.) We'll discuss the microbiology of fermentation and what's really happening down there. Instructor Emma Holder (Masters in Micro/Immuno, McGill 1993, http://emmaholder.com)
