So, you have gotten your first Flavor of the Month second fermentation subscription box, but you’re missing some of the required second fermentation kombucha equipment to get going on that first recipe.
If you are new to brewing altogether, we recommend getting our Deluxe Kombucha Brewing Kit; this includes both our full kombucha starter kit and a 6-pack of 16 ounce flip-top glass bottles at a discount. The kombucha starter kit will walk you through the entire primary fermentation process; it contains everything you need to make your first gallon of kombucha. You will also be able to use the equipment to brew kombucha by the gallon for life after your first batch; you will just need to restock your tea and sugar.
Our recipes are written for use with a 6-pack of 16 ounce flip-top glass bottles; the bottles are exactly what you need to make delicious second fermentation kombucha. They can be cleaned and re-used for each batch. Glass is best for kombucha as it is highly acidic and can react with metal and plastic. The flip-top closures also lock in all of your carbonation and provide the airtight environment needed for second fermentation kombucha.
You absolutely NEED fermented kombucha in order to make second fermentation kombucha; if you are familiar with brewing and don’t want the entire brewing kit, you can also check out our SCOBYs and a la carte brewing equipment.
We also highly recommend getting glass flip-top bottles for your second fermentation kombucha. They make a difference in the fermentation process as a whole, trapping more carbonation in the bottles and helping you to achieve the desired flavor. However, if you are eager to make your first recipe and do not have them on hand, you can check out these alternative options while you wait for your flip-top bottles to arrive.
If you order both the kombucha brewing kit and the glass bottles at once, you get to celebrate with 10% off your entire order when you use promo code 2FLOVE. This code also works for our Deluxe Brewing Kit bundle for even more savings!
That’s all folks! The only thing left to do is order the second fermentation kombucha equipment you need and start home-brewing the best kombucha you have ever had 🙂
