Workshop Details:
Duration: Approximately 120 minutes


Location: Our workshops are held at 33 Desker Road, in Farrer Park neighbourhood. Please note that this venue does not have lift access. Our workshop will take place on the second level of the shophouse, which is accessible only by stairs. If there are any changes to the location for specific sessions, participants will be informed in advance.
Minimum Participants: Please note, a minimum of 12 participants is required for the workshop to commence. Invite your friends and let's get culturing!
Important Note: This workshop is a deep dive into creating Probiotic-rich Raw Kombucha using authentic culturing techniques. You'll discover how to create truly medicinal beverages that are low in harmful byproducts and packed with health-promoting qualities. We will illuminate the critical distinction between fermentation (which can produce ethanol) and true culturing (which enriches with beneficial bacteria like Lactobacillus acidophilus and vital B vitamins). You'll learn how to cultivate yeasts and beneficial bacteria from high-quality tea, without any harmful additives or chemicals. This knowledge is not just a culinary skill; it's a fundamental aspect of food as a means of survival and a step towards being less reliant on a system that has no interest in you learning these vital skills.
