The beauty about our 3 litre kilner glass jar with a tap is you can either do a continuous brew or batch brew, it’s totally up to you! So what’s the difference?
Batch brew: Batch brewing is making kombucha in individual batches or cycles. So for each new brew you will remove your SCOBY and kombucha liquid clean out your vessel and start the process again.
Advantages: Good for those who want only a glass or two a day and also who don’t want to continuously make kombucha (you might be going away etc) or for those who like to change the type of tea they use regularly.
Disadvantages: Weekly maintenance and if you want to produce large volumes it can take up a lot of space as you will need a few jars.
Continuous Brew: Continuous Brewing involves using a bigger vessel (like the one we provide) with a tap for drawing off Kombucha when it’s ready, then adding sweet tea to the top, without removing the SCOBY or starter liquid. You never actually ever empty your container you simply top up and draw off regularly. We would suggest making 5 brews and then cleaning out and starting again.
Advantages: Makes lots of Kombucha with less work as you’ll have less to clean on a weekly basis
Disadvantages : You will need an excellent glass jar with a good quality tap brew safe tap on it to use (like the kilner one we provide)
