Most commercially produced kombucha contains less than 0.5% alcohol by volume (ABV), but home-brewed versions can have significantly higher levels, sometimes reaching 3% or more. Understanding the fermentation process is key to controlling this natural byproduct and learning how to reduce alcohol content in kombucha for a milder brew.

Approximately 1.5 million Americans make their own kombucha, meaning many people face traveling with a SCOBY. Keeping a SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeast) healthy while in transit is important to ensure the homemade brew continues successfully.
