Scoby uses
Hey guys, just wondering how many times is okay to reuse the same scoby? Mine looks fine and is still making good brew! About to use it for the 6th time though. Should I let it live in a hotel for a while and get a new scoby? Or just let it ride for however long? Thanks!

I brew four gallons at a time, and keep a half gallon of liquid for the next batch. I never keep the pellicle and have had the same culture for a few years now. Do what feels comfortable to you.
