kombucha 1 week later...

i was shocked at home much yeast had formed in the first 24 hours of starting my first batch of kombucha.  the brand strains are the yeast and i was even more shocked that within a few days a baby scoby had started to form.  now at one week into the fermentation process i have a very healthy and alive baby scoby that has formed over the top layer.  we leave for vacation at the end of the week and i am undecided what i want to do with this batch.  i certainly could leave it until we get home, but will have to make sure the house sitter knows not to worry it is not a body part in there, like some high school science class ;-)
