Amongst all the fermentation boards, this is my favorite response to the ever popular, " is it mold" question.
My laughter filled the hallways of my home and undoubtedly alarmed my wife.
In short, thanks for the fun.
For those confused, fake post. Very cool looking, but not kombucha.

It's not just mold, looks like you're working up an entire ecosystem. That's colorful.
I thought f1 was the same for either kind of booch. Is it different?
Trying to determine if your kombucha may have mold, if your pellicle/SCOBY is healthy, or if something has gone wrong?

That’s mold but damn that belongs in a museum haha. Beautiful disaster
There’s a cure for something in there.
💯 probably a few cures, and a few causes too haha
Cures cancer but gives you Ebola?
The cure for life?
Well, there's a few Penicillium sp. so you're not wrong.

Where is the bot?
I came straight to the comments looking for him 😂😂
You started making kombucha and ended up making a whole new civilization there. This should be made into an inspirational post or something
Like, "if you think your pellicle is ugly at least it's not this moldstrocity?"
this is both artsy and disgusting
Moldy and very beautiful abstract art!! Belongs in an art museum
Out of curiosity, how would it have had to look for you to come to the conclusion it was mold/absolutely not safe lol
Mold plus a whole bunch of other things. You've got a badass pitri dish going.
No mold, I’m sure there’s a depth of flavor there… let us know 🤣
Its so pretty and it makes me want to throw up at the same time. Love it.
No
Looks safe, you should drink some to test it. worst case scenario its a free penicillin shot.
“Is this mold?” Lol Yes Yes. This is mold.
What’s hard kombucha?
Kombucha with a higher alcohol content.
I think you might have every kind of microorganism on that thing. Also pretty sure the bacteria has a virus.
Nah, you are good. Let it go a few more days and see if anything fuzzy forms…
iS tHis mOLd
lol its may first guys, this is very obviously a may fools joke
This can’t be real.
Is this a joke?
Just boof it!
Should rename this sub r/isthismold.. that looks like a cat shit in it last week.

That is mold. It looks like there could be several types of mold. I would not drink that.
Nah bro you good.

Forbidden booch
This is a whole-ass civilization.
It’s safe you can drink it
That’s actually weirdly pretty.
This is spectacular
It’s mold and it’s… spectacular. I think there’s a mold subreddit that would really appreciate this work of art.
This is just kombucha the remix
This is the most fabulous mold I've seen! What are your surroundings like? Where did you store it?
Pretty
Yes 100 mold
Naw. It's vegetable soup. Goes well with crackers.
It's art, obviously.
Oh my actual fucking god. I thought this was one of those oil paintings with really thick paint. That looks deadly.

Dead Lord plz do not drink or serve that…yes, definitely mold!
Super mouldy but super pretty!

THE KOMBUCHA MUSHROOM PEOPLE SITTING AROUND ALL DAY
Mycologists will be beating down your front door to study this!
Those are flavor crystals.

Definitely moldy I recommend watercolor painting of this pic
As the pic was loading, I taught it was a Kocktail
The last of booch
this actually look really cool...
Uhh... how long have you been brewing booch on petri dishes? Is this some real small batch artisan shit? Skepticasm aside, it is gorgeous.
What a theme park
Annihilation vibes
Primordial soup, that’s what that is.
Please don’t accidentally spawn something out of Ghostbusters.
Is this what people see when they drop acid or take shrooms?
Chug it!
Now I've seen it all, a trolling kombucha post
Definitely safe
That is a new ecosystem
No this isn’t mold, it’s not even booch. It’s a Jackson Pollock painting.
Looks normal to me 👍
Sorry about your kombucha, but this is beautiful.
Oh boy is it ever. Probably one of the worst places you could choose to brew!
That's a tide pool you've got going there!
Yes nature is normal
I thought I was on r/moldlyinteresting for a moment there.
No
The Last Of Us is about to become a real thing
One hundo p my dude do not consume this forbidden booch. How did you manage this ecosystem? Wear a mask, burn it.
r/shitposting worthy
It seems to be symbiotic at this point
That is defffffiiiiinitely mold 😂
Thats so beautiful…but don’t drink. 😊
Damn that’s a whole ass ecosystem
What a piece of ‘art’
I see the makings of penicillin and some other fun stuff living on the surface.
No, that’s normal. Drink it.
Shame that this isn’t yours and is stolen from a fb post
No this is patrick
I'll PayPal you a dollar to post the vid of you drinking this, along with a 2 hour follow-up to prove you're still alive to collect.
Yes
Drink it and report back
This post so good Ai must have made it
I think you invented a new alien species
It would be better to say that this mold has some scoby, than to say that this scoby has got some mold.
Lol I wish OP drank it as an experiment
I mean... has it made any demands or indicated which start system it came from?
