How To Brew Beer

how can I test the alcohol content of homemade kombucha?

I understand the alcohol content of kombucha is minimal, but sometimes I can feel a buzz. can I use the same equipment that you use for beer or wine (hydrometer or vinometer) to test the alcohol content of my kombucha home brew?

a lab is the only way.

A hydrometer will not work because it can tell you how much alcohol is there, but remember kombucha is a mother of vinegar and the acetic bacteria will eat the alcohol, but how much of it did they eat? there really isnt a way to measure it at home. hope that helps. i would love to know myself too. i have been making the most delicious batches by adding a 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar to each 1 gallon batch.
