Some of the earliest evidence we have of humans harnessing fermentation shows they were making beer and wine (cheeky ancestors!). However, the end result of making fermented drinks doesn&#39;t always have to be alcohol. The process of fermentation allows us to create exciting and desirable flavours that can&#39;t be achieved by any other method. In this workshop we&#39;ll instruct you how to make your own kombucha to take home.Kombucha is a tangy, fizzy fermented tea drink made using a SCOBY (symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeasts). It&#39;s a great, refreshing low-alcohol - a tiny bit is produced during fermentation - alternative to your usual tipple.Our 1.5 hour course starts with a welcome drink (fermented, of course) along with a few tasters of our core range of sauerkraut and kimchi and perhaps the occasional one or two experiments we&#39;ve been working on.From here we dive into what fermentation actually is and the scientific methodology of how we as humans can harness it to do our bidding. This involves touching on some basic scientific principles to assist in the understanding of what we are actually doing when we &#39;ferment&#39; something. These principles will be ESSENTIAL when making a successful ferment on the day and at home. Throughout the workshop we touch on some of the nutritional facts surrounding fermented foods and why the term &#39;probiotics&#39; is thrown around so often.As nutritionists, we&#39;ll share our knowledge about nutrition, gut-health and how fermented foods can play a role in improving our health and strengthening our immune systems. You&#39;ll learn how to start and care for kombucha, using a SCOBY you&#39;ll take home with you on the day. You&#39;ll also go home with care instructions to ensure you have all the tools necessary for your ferments to turn out fantastic!WHAT DO YOU GET?<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li style="font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="font-size: 16px;">Expert instruction and guidance on how to produce your own kombucha at home</li><li style="font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="font-size: 16px;">Tastings of <a href="http://www.thecraftypickle.co.uk/products" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" fr-original-style="" style="user-select: auto; font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: inherit;">Crafty Pickle Co. fermented foods</a> (and more!)</li><li style="font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="font-size: 16px;">The chance to ask ANY questions you might have around fermenting.</li><li style="font-size: 16px; box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="font-size: 16px;">To bring home everything you need to brew your very own kombucha at home.</li></ul>WHAT DO I BRING..?Nothing!
