With this tutorial you can grow your own fabrics with ingredients from your kitchen and Scoby! Scoby? It's Symbiotic Colony Of Bacteria and Yeast. We use the one that comes from the tea kombucha. So, you can find easily in organic store or from kombucha tea drinker.&lt;br /&gt;

{{Introduction&lt;br /&gt;
|Introduction=FAQ, we have the answers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
• Which tea should I use?&lt;br /&gt;
Green, black, red, white, rainbow, flavoured or not, any tea you like.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
• What is “The Starter”?&lt;br /&gt;
It’s the liquid of culture in which you grow your Scoby. When you start a new culture you can add some starter in your new liquid of culture to grow your Scoby faster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
• The Scoby produces gas? &lt;br /&gt;
It’s a sign of a good fermentation! If you leave the bubbles your Baby Scoby will be deformed when growing. Don’t forget to gently spread the baby.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
• What is the best temperature to cultivate? &lt;br /&gt;
The ideal temperature is 25°C. Under this temperature the growth will be a bit slower. Avoid a temperature under 17°C, it will take too long.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
• What is the best drying temperature?&lt;br /&gt;
The ideal temperature is 25°C. Under this temperature, drying will be slower. A good ventilation is the second condition to an effective drying.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
• Should we grow under sterile conditions? &lt;br /&gt;
Not necessarily, but you should wash your hands and all tools before you start.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
• What size should the culture tank be? &lt;br /&gt;
A container sized 17x20x6 minimum depth for a  220 cl preparation....Suzanne Lee said it! Under bed plastic trays (56 x 77 x 17 cm) are ideal for 8 to 10 liter preparations. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
• Is culture feels?&lt;br /&gt;
This is a fermentation process. A faint smell of vinegar emerges, after all depends on the sensitivity of each!&lt;br /&gt;

It is very important that the liquid is below 30°Celius, before adding the other ingredients:&lt;br /&gt;
- to prevent odor vinagar emission&lt;br /&gt;
- not to kill the starter and SCOBY&lt;br /&gt;
