The Official "Can I Have..." Guide to the Whole30
Nadia B replied to Robin Strathdee's topic in Can I have ___?
First, most of them have stevia and other ingredients that are out on Whole30. Second, you don't need that much supplementation if you are eating right. This supplement check list is a good way to evaluate the product. Third, please check these articles on supplementation while on Whole30. Part I and Part II.- 77 replies

The Official "Can I Have..." Guide to the Whole30
Nadia B replied to Robin Strathdee's topic in Can I have ___?
Hi there. I am not a moderator, but here are my 2c. Technically they are fine. However, how do I put it nicely? It is not an ideal choice. We want to get healthy and eat nutrient dense food - this product has no nutritional value or health benefits. We want to change relationship with food - this might be a desire to replace pasta ( I say might, please let's not get into SWYPO talk, they are nasty). Zucchini/sweet potato/carrot noodles or spaghetti squash would make a perfect substitutes if the dish is calling for this kind of texture. This website made me laugh out loud. "The soluble fiber found in the Miracle Noodle slows digestion and prolongs the sensation of fullness and is an essential part of any weight loss program. You also absorb more nutrients in the foods you eat with The Miracle Noodle due to the slowing of digestion". Really? Meat and fat will give you sensation of fullness, people- 77 replies

Kb, mine decided to relax too. I get it it's summer time, she wants to chill, but it's not even growing to fill the surface of the jar. Time to bug Dad for one. -

It is recommended to boil the water for 10-15 minutes uncovered to evaporate all the chlorine. -

They will work for sure. I though that buying GT is the way, because at least you get the bottle AND the booch Give your friends and neighbours a shout, they might have lots of bottles.... -

Well, you can sti keep the jar and see what happens Megmac grew her with "oily" tea. But yeah, it will take forever probably. Don't worry, it's not a rocket science, you'll be a pro in a matter of couple batches. -

Note that it might take a longer time for scoby to grow. Oils in teas are not that good for yeast. Vanilla. Are u on wh30? Then vanilla extract is out. I wouldn't take chance and try the vanilla sugar. I have never tried it or heard anyone trying it. Maybe someone else with chime in regarding this. -

Your taste buds are your advisors. Should be sour but not too sour. It shouldn't be too sweet either. Generally - if you like it, bottle it -

Again, if it's too sour, keep it in the fridge and mix with more of booch from next batch? -

Nadia B replied to kb0426's topic in Recipe Sharing
It takes a little less time to brew in summer. I start testing after day 5. My usual bottling day is day 7. What you can do is to discard 1/3 or half of the sour booch and add fresh tea. Let sit for a couple days to ferment. Should work. -

Aha little scobies running around the kitchen, playing with your spice jars and messing around. Or you can just pour pure booch in a big jar and store it in the fridge to slow down the fermentation. When you would like to flavor - take it out and do the usual routine. -

I would prepare tea first, remember, it needs to cool down first. It might take some time.Then, I'd pour everything out to any mixing bowl - liquid and a scoby. Fill the jar with fresh tea, pour the starter liquid with scoby and cover. It is like rubber, nothing is going to happen to it. You can't ruin it. If you are grossed out to touch it understandable, I just move it around with clean hands. Good luck! P.S Def try the liquid from the scoby jar before. I use straw to get underneath the yeastie. If it's sour and not sweet - start the brew 200%. -

Annabel, green+white is awesome. Just do 2/3 white 1/3 green to feed the scoby. Megmac, I'd start brewing, really. Fresh tea and sugar will help it out. Don't dump the poor thing, it's trying -

Facial! Whaaaat?! I know that Liz will probably say "yep, have been doing it forever". I wonder how can you mush it up, blender? So cruel, my heart will be bleeding to watch that I am curious to try tho. Just when I thought I couldn't gross out people more with eating kidneys and hearts. Thanks for heads up! Megmac, it's kinds thin-ish for a 3 week, tbh. But it's not abnormal and like Sophie said, it will do the job. Have you added a bottle of store booch to fatten it up? Did you move it from the light? Oh poor you, waiting must be killing you. Give it couple more days and start brewing I say. -
