Fermentaholics Jun Kombucha Starter Kit — 12 fl oz Organic SCOBY & Starter Tea, Makes 1 Gallon (Green Tea & Honey)

Fermentaholics Jun Kombucha Starter Culture is a ready-to-brew organic Jun SCOBY and concentrated starter tea packaged to kickstart one gallon of green-tea-and-honey kombucha at home.

Start brewing Jun—the lighter, subtly floral cousin to classic black-tea kombucha—using a certified-organic SCOBY and strong starter liquid from Fermentaholics. This 12 fl oz kit contains a mature pellicle and liquid starter tea formulated to acidify and inoculate one gallon of green tea and honey so the fermentation begins predictably and safely. All cultures are produced in a licensed facility, USDA organic certified and kosher, giving you transparent quality for home fermentation.

How do I use this Jun starter to make my first gallon?

Using the Fermentaholics Jun starter is straightforward: brew a gallon of properly steeped green tea, dissolve the recommended honey, cool to room temperature, then add the SCOBY and starter tea. Keep the vessel covered but breathable and let fermentation proceed for several days, tasting regularly for your preferred balance.

• Includes pre-measured mature starter liquid for one gallon.
• Follow provided step-by-step instructions for correct tea strength and temperature.
• Maintain a clean environment and breathable cover to prevent contamination.
• Taste after 3–10 days to find your ideal acidity and effervescence.

What makes this Jun culture different from standard kombucha starters?

Jun cultures are developed specifically for fermenting green tea sweetened with honey, which yields a brighter, more delicate flavor profile than apple or black-tea-based kombuchas. Fermentaholics provides a SCOBY and starter tea already adapted to those ingredients, reducing trial-and-error and improving first-batch success.

• Formulated for green tea + honey fermentations (Jun style).
• Starter tea is concentrated and mature, ensuring a faster, safer acidification.
• USDA Organic and kosher certified from a licensed lab.
• Reduces early-batch off-flavors linked to inexperienced cultures.

How do I care for and reuse the SCOBY to brew again?

With simple maintenance you can reuse the pellicle for many batches: rinse gently with filtered water if needed, store between brews in starter tea at room temperature, and avoid exposure to metal or chlorinated water. Proper care extends the life of your SCOBY and helps you brew reliably for years.

• Keep stored in reserved starter liquid to preserve beneficial microbes.
• Use glass containers and plastic or wooden utensils to avoid metal contact.
• Replace starter tea periodically and discard if you notice strong off-odors or discoloration.
• Share or refrigerate excess SCOBYs for backup or gifting.
