Tracks: Alternative Fermentation
Our panel of experts will explore the history of kombucha from its earliest documented existence to its evolution into a commercially significant product. We will explore the intriguing and complex microbiology that underlies this mixed fermentation and culminates in the physical development of the symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY). In addition to presenting the basic kombucha brewing process, we’ll sample different kombuchas while we discuss recent developments and future trends in kombucha.
