After reserving about 2 cups of starter tea for the next batch, one gallon generally provides enough kombucha to fill a standard six-pack of 16-ounce flip-top bottles for second fermentation, with a little variation based on fill level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I ferment kombucha with the plastic lid in place?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Primary fermentation requires airflow, so use a breathable cover and rubber band.
