Ed -- I have a question for you on this topic, if you don't mind?  I tried 
making and using Kombucha tea for a while, sometime back, and had to quit.  I 
couldn't drink the stuff because of the slimy threads that seemed to be part of 
the liquid that I couldn't prevent, and couldn't strain out.  I really liked 
the taste of the tea, but couldn't get past the organics -- makes me gag to 
think about it.  What do you do to solve this problem?       MA
