Description
Acetic acid is the organic compound responsible for the vinegary flavor and aroma commonly associated with kombucha. The concentration of this acid can vary; however, it tends to reach its peak at 11 g/L on day 30 of the fermentation process and will drop to 8 g/L by day 60. pH is just one piece of acid analysis in foods and beverages, with any homemade kombucha it is important to test pH for food safety. For taste on the other hand, titratable acidity is substantially more important especially when it comes to analyzing tartness or tanginess.
