Frequently Asked Questions
How much can I brew in the 4L fermenter?
You can brew up to 4 litres (allowing appropriate headspace is always a good idea). It’s an excellent size for weekly batches and regular pouring.
Which SCOBY do I receive?
You can choose either an Organic Kombucha SCOBY (brews up to 3L) or an Organic Jun SCOBY (brews up to 3L) as part of this bundle. Both come with starter liquid and full instructions.
Can I use this fermenter for both kombucha and Jun?
Yes. The fermenter is suitable for both. If you swap between kombucha and Jun, we recommend keeping the brew style consistent for each culture (kombucha with tea + sugar, Jun with green tea + raw honey).
How long does fermentation take?
Fermentation time varies with temperature and taste preference. Kombucha is commonly ready in 4–6 days, and Jun is often similar. Use the fermentation clock as a guide and start tasting as it approaches your usual window.
How does the lid help with smells?
The lid is designed to allow airflow while the active carbon filter / odour neutraliser helps reduce strong fermentation odours in the kitchen.
Is the spigot safe for kombucha?
Yes — it includes a stainless-steel spigot designed for clean, smooth pouring and easier day-to-day use.
Can I do continuous brew with this fermenter?
Yes — many brewers use a spigot fermenter for continuous brew. Just avoid draining it completely: keep enough mature kombucha/Jun behind as starter, then top up with fresh sweet tea (or sweetened green tea + honey for Jun) to maintain a healthy culture.
What if my SCOBY doesn’t activate?
Your SCOBY is covered by our Arrive Alive Guarantee. If it doesn’t start fermenting within a few days, we’ll replace it free of charge.

Let customers speak for us
I'm very happy with my keffir purchase
I'm very happy with my keffir purchase. They are very robust. I mistakenly lost a chunk of them in the first batch, but they coped and grew back very quickly.
I had them in a cupboard for several batches but they now chow through so much milk I've put them in the fridge to slow them down.
Even though I've had them before, this strain transforms the milk to a cheesy consistency if left for a little longer than necessary, where the other strain made the milk fizzy.
Consuming split keffir can be a psychological barrier but you can have the curd and whey with no I'll effect - in fact it really improved my gut, which had become a bit intolerant of milk as I aged. No probs now, which is fantastic as I like milk!
The milk batch in the fridge is ready to consume and has a lovely consistency. I'm looking forward to consuming it.
One other thing worth sharing - keffir in pancakes is great.

Good flavour
My starter activated really fast. So fast, I was actually surprised. It has a really nice flavour. Now I am up to the fun part of trying to learn the art of sourdough. Had a couple of fails, I am sure there are still more to come. Such is life for the novice baker.

Quick activation
It only took about two rounds to get activated. Now that I have been using it for a few weeks, it ferments faster. Really enjoy having the kefir added to my breakfast and I also give it to my dog - who loves it !

At first the grains didn't seem to be working. But then after a few days everything went to plan. The grains just keep on growing.
Thank you for the wonderful Kefir milk.

Very happy
My grains arrived beautifully packaged with clear and concise instructions to get me started. They only took a few days to become active and have given me 300ml of Kefir each day since, I love it! So much better than paying for bottled product at the shops. I’ll never look back now!
