ROY Kombucha Home Brewing Kit
ISO getting you down? Only so many walks, cake baking and reading one can do, no? The solution? There is none but I have a little secret that will have you becoming your own kombucha master and surprising all those around (even if it your cats) and even your own self. Three words - ROY Brew Kit.
Here’s a little ISO activity for you. An activity that will get your blood pumping, adrenaline rolling and fingers moving. An activity that will get the whole family involved or just “me, myself and I”. But this activity involves nothing more than reading instructions, following and watching your new found love, grow, evolve and mature into something that you are beyond proud of. Then you drink your love and start again.
There is nothing more painful than an exciting venture you have decided to embark on - yes, even in your own living room during lock down - but the steps are so complicated, the process in finding the ingredients/equipment is a task itself and the end result is medaoaka. How about an activity where everything is delivered in one box, right to your from door (of course, keeping that beloved distance that we have all become very well accustomed too). This activity is really a journey; a journey that provokes mixed emotions (amazement, patience and love). Within this journey there is an evolution and it is this that not only allows you to taste true homemade kombucha but learn, through watching, how this is achieved. This journey is truely invigorating - no mind numbing procedures that often result in an unfinished products here.
Ever had trouble buying drinks because they just aren’t quite what you feel like, your mood reflects or that which embraces the current weather to the exact dimension? This kombucha allows you to flavour based on your exact edible cravings. I went for peaches, lime and cloves to bring in the spring (although it seems to be dabbling between winter and spring still) ingredients as well as keep a sort of spiced warmth. Cloves are not as strong as when they are heated, which is when their famous bitterness is released. Rather when they are added to cool beverages, they infuse their sweetness with a nutty side note. Do not over do it adding the cloves, however, as they are one of the strongest spices to date. I added 3 to whole litre of kombucha at the same time as adding the lime and peaches (follow instructions).
