About this Event

Ruth from Edinburgh Fermentarium will be hosting this workshop to teach you how to make seasonal Kombucha recipes for yourself at home.
Kombucha is a naturally effervescent fermented drink made from sweetened tea and a specific culture known as a S.C.O.B.Y.
S.C.O.B.Y. stands for 'symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast'.
Learn all about the magic of it it in this fun workshop with lots of tastings of Kombucha and other fermented foods and drinks.
The link between healthy bacteria in the digestive system and immune function is becoming clearer as more studies focus on gut health. If the probiotics in kombucha improve gut health, they may also strengthen the immune system
You'll get your own S.C.O.B.Y. in a 1 Litre jar to take home and care for.
What's included in the ticket?
All ingredients and jars are provided. You will get a 1L jar of tea with your own S.C.O.B.Y to ferment Kombucha at home.
"Thank you for a brilliant Kraut workshop on Sunday, it was so interesting and I learned so much. Meeting other people was great too, everyone so friendly and willing to share experiences. You were so organised and clearly had thought it all out so it all flowed really well. I came away feeling able to take this technique forward." Jenni
"Just a little note to say how very much we both enjoyed your Kimchi and Kraut workshop yesterday. You gave us such a good introduction to making these wonderful foods and we shall watch (and burp!) our precious jars carefully over the next couple of weeks before sampling the contents! Thank you VERY much again" Janice and Catriona
