percypat 497 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Lovely gift And the baby SCOBYs can dream of going to new jars! Frank is very shy. He is hanging out at the bottom and doing his best to make the tea all murky so I can't see him. Here is some of his handiwork. *proud mummy* Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Look what Frank just did: He was lying on the bottom of the jar before, now he's suddenly decided to lean up against the side! SweetEnough 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

msssjenna 155 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Here is my scoby I have received in the mail yesterday, ordered from Etsy. It also came with black tea bags and instructions. I am still searching for a 1 gallon container. The biggest pickle jar I can find is only half a gallon. I guess I will have to suck it up and buy a $20 jar from Target.

bi0nicw0man 37 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Did anyone ever have a baked good called "Herman" when they were young? All this talk of SCOBY and babies reminds me of it. Our neighbour had a starter she shared with us, and we would bake a cake type thing with it. It grew like crazy! So we had to bake with it a couple of times a week to keep up. My Mom eventually got rid of it because there was only so much "Herman" we could eat, but man it was yummy and I wish we had it now! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
