The visuals and science were extremely helpful and interesting! I found this book fascinating. Having made kombucha myself many times, I found the directions for that and similar ferments hard to follow and would unfortunately not recommend these techniques to others.

Love this book, no longer need to screenshot and save all his videos. All recipes are very doable for a novice. I hope Mr. Cooper continues to create recipes.
