Kombucha has gone VERY cloudy

[PenhowBrewer]

After several successful batches, my last kombucha batch was very, very cloudy. Despite advice out on the web, it didn’t clear much during second fermentation.
the current batch is also very cloudy
anyone else experienced this Or have any ideas/suggestions?

Has the scoby grown too big? Maybe try splitting it and fermenting with a smaller one next batch and see if that helps.

 

[PenhowBrewer]

Thx, I’ll try that. The scoby is quite a size

The only other thing I can suggest is if you aren't using dechlorinated water. However if the scoby is growing well I guess there's no problem with the water or the food.

Have you changed brand of tea or sugar? Or have you added any extra flavourings? It might be something in one of those that’s suspending.

@PenhowBrewer did you discover what caused the cloudiness? My latest one is also very cloudy.
I suspect it may have been the tea I used as I had some earl grey to use up and later read that earl grey isnt good for kombucha
