Growing your own Probiotic Bacteria (fruit ferment)

How much quantity of vinegar and what purpose? Also the lid must air tight seal?

how long can these probiotics live in that jar?

Hard to read the ingredients

From what I've read you need to always boil your fruit first, otherwise you are cultivating the bacteria that is in the fruit as well...

Can't use apple cider due to allergy... Would rice vinegar work?

I do not know what music you used... but sounds a lot like Raag Jhinjhoti from Indian Classical Music... I liked the video and the idea a lot.. but why do we add vinegar... do we need to make it sour... after the bacteria from the capsule is added... plus sugar... and organic material... isnt it enough for fermentation?

@Chrissy You really don't need to add apple cider vinegar. Yes, you can use any vinegar - or even plain white vinegar. Fermented vinegars (with the "mother" or live cultures) will have other bacterial and fungal species that will compete with the bacteria from the probiotic capsules. Vinegar is added to quickly drop the pH (i.e. make the fruit juice acidic) which will favour the growth of the bacterial species you intend, rather than bad, unwanted bacteria. You only need a small amount of vinegar, just one or two teaspoons. But you can still ferment without even adding any vinegar. In this case, use a 2% brine or salt solution, along with the sugar. However, brines are best used with veggie ferments rather than fruits, as the fermented juice will taste really salty! Personally, I add a pinch or two of salt, plus vinegar if I'm fermenting fruit.

By the way, it may be a good idea to sterilize not just the jar in which you culture, but the fruit you use, too. Boil the fruit first to kill off any unwanted bacteria and fungi living on the fruit. Let the boiled fruit cool, and then put into the jar with the water + vinegar and then add the bacterial spores from the probiotic capsules and the sugar (I'd use less sugar myself - half of what was used here).

I hope this helps.

Is the process same for soil based organisms?

how long before you make a fresh batch of brew and throw this one out? Thanks!

Music was awesome and I felt like sleeping....Nice
Apart from Banana, what else can we se for the fruit as growing media ?

please tell me the name of this fruit and what is organic sugar?

So you took a source of sugar and nutrients (the fruit), added more sugar, then added Acetobacter spp and then added some more bacteria and yeasts. Then you sealed the bottle. What happens?  are made of both bacteria and yeast. Common  bacteria can include lactobacillus and bifidobacterium. The most common yeast found in

An airlock added to it would make so you wouldn’t have to burp it every 24 hours.

I made sauerkraut by using probiotic capsule.But the liquid is auiet slimy, though the smell and texture is fine, I'm scared to taste it. Is the slimy texture because of the probiotics ? I have made sauerkraut before without using probiotic capsules and it's juice was quite watery,so I'm a little skeptical this time.

Thank you

Could you do this without the fruit and apple cider vinegar, maybe by adding some more sugar? I'm wanting to grow a very specific probiotic strain, and I wonder if the yeast/bacteria on the surface of the fruit would compete with the probiotic. I've grown kefir using just the culture and sugar + water.

I think vinegar kill all probiotic bacteria.....

i tryed same method the honey flavor(bread yeast forment then add apple cider )，i am thinking maybe they need same vitamin+mineral as we did，dont know whats end (like nutrient medium)😆

I love this video also the music is so so so good i love it😌

This in NOT growing your own it’s adding already made pro biotics

Can I used this method to brew Lactobacillus Reuteri?

Interesting, some probiotics are super expensive depending the rareness. Im going give this a bash.

How do you get the probiotics survive the stomach acid, when its not in capsules or any protection from the acid.

Do you think all of the inoculated species can reproduce themselves in that environment? It would be cool to have the bacterial content of your drink rigorously checked

this is absurd. you said store bought probiotics are freeze dried so not activated....and yet you use a store bought probiotics to create your own culture. well, what do you think the vinegar and food acts like? it's the condition in your stomach. if your probiotics is active after being inoculated by the store bought version, than essentially popping it in your mouth directly does the same thing.

Why the apple vineager?

can you add this to milk for making yogurt?

Please suggest the best probiotics capsules or powder you have used as starter culture to grow probiotics at home? Please. UK Amazon or UK eBay please

Please Suggest similar probiotic powder, Capsules for Starter Culture in England,UK please.
I bought a few But none worked. Maybe fake or Dead bacteria 🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠

I tried this recipe. While it did make a strong probiotic drink, it also raised my blood sugar a lot as measured by my continuous glucose monitor. I tried to make it a couple of times letting it ferment longer each time to ferment more of the sugar until it had no sweet taste at all. It still raised my blood sugar a lot. Not good for diabetics or any kind of low carb diets.

💐💐💐

can I just put probiotics In my acv bottle? thanks

Amazing super ideas must tries this thk a lots.

Awesome video! So do I add the same amount of sugar when it's low? More water? Another probiotic capsule? Thank you friend

Is the carbon dioxide produced during fermentation bad for us?

when drinking this makes me feel good right after

I want watch a video without any audio

Can we replace the sugar with anything else i suffer from diabetes

Thank you. This was very helpful and also the comment about the vinegar. Both of you very helpful and thoughtful video and suggestions.

I am going to play this music when I make this too.
Question...
Will it help the probiotics some?

How can gud bacteria be survived in stomach hcl as u have removed enteric coating that is capsule

So you only grow Probiotics that also grow at 70 F which is what? Lactobacillus Acidophilus, Bifido Bacterium; Anything else. Obviously, you can not grow L. Rueteri or L. Gasseri. What about Spore Probiotics like B. Coangulans and B. Subtilis?

Please can you tell me I want to try to make this wit l reuterii in capsules but they say to make l reiterii it needs to be hot environment…. Do you know anything about this?
I’m dairy sensitive. So I can not have yogurt or kefir.
I’m praying that your recipe will help me.

they actually should be inactive that way they will survive and reach your gut, once active they are very fragile.

You don't need yhe vinegar. Why add it.

Is this for lactobacillus salivarius?

Love the info but...the video creeps me out.
The music, along with phrases like "what I desire...", and even the slow mo shot at the end...
Creepy as heck but I LOVE IT!
Seriously! Brava...or bravo.
Couldn't tell by the hands if it was a man or an older woman.
Most likely a female. Nails were clean and the music soft...and now I'm just rambling so thanks again and keep up the good work.

if u want to make another drink u need new capsule or u can use the first drink as starter ?

A brewers air trap is much safer .... They super cheap too.
And skip the vinegar it just interrupts the fermentation, totally useless in this..
