Frequently Asked Questions
What is Jun, and how is it different from kombucha?
Jun is a fermented tea made with green tea and raw honey, producing a lighter, smoother and more floral drink compared to kombucha, which uses black tea and cane sugar.
How much Jun tea can I brew with this SCOBY?
Your SCOBY can ferment up to 2 litres per batch straight away. With ongoing care, it will continue producing indefinitely.
Do I need raw honey, or can I use regular honey?
Raw honey is essential. Regular supermarket honey is heated and filtered, which can weaken or even harm a Jun SCOBY. Always use raw, unprocessed honey for the best results.
What type of tea should I use?
Jun requires organic green tea. Avoid black tea, herbal blends, flavoured teas, or anything containing oils — they can harm the SCOBY.
How long does Jun take to ferment?
Typically 4–6 days, depending on temperature. Warmer rooms ferment faster, cooler rooms slower. Taste daily from day 3 to find your perfect flavour.
Can I reuse the SCOBY?
Yes! A Jun SCOBY is fully reusable and self-renewing. After each batch, simply brew again with fresh tea and honey. It will also grow new layers (a “baby” SCOBY) you can use or share.
How should I store the SCOBY if I'm taking a break?
Place it in a jar with sweetened green tea and keep it in the fridge (“SCOBY hotel”). Feed with fresh tea and honey every 4–6 weeks.
What if my SCOBY doesn’t activate?
We offer an Arrive Alive Guarantee — if your SCOBY doesn’t ferment within a few days, we’ll replace it free of charge.
