What type of cover should I use to cover my fermenting Kombucha Tea?
Never cover your fermenting tea with a metal or any solid lid. It is best to use a tightly woven cloth, disposable unbleached coffee filters, unbleached paper towels, or similar type covers. Do not use cheesecloth, as it has too loose a weave–this allows dust and vermin (fruit flies, ants etc.,) to enter the fermenting container.
