How you ask!?!?
Here’s what I found:
I went to a local store that sells a similar product as I make at home. Organic, no chemicals, no sugar, gluten free, gmo free, all that good stuff!
We eat more than a little old jar a week in our house. But let’s say one is enough. This brand has some fun flavor options (like you will have at the workshop!) So let’s say you’re having a jar a week. At $8 a jar x 52 weeks = $416 a year No so bad right? What if I told you to make this at home you would spend… |
$35 a year, tops.
That means you’ll eat 7 gallons of kraut in a year. At 5 lbs of cabbage for 1 gallon of kraut (generally) you’ll need 35 lbs of cabbage for a year of kraut.
Most places sell by the head for $1.50 a head. A head varies in size but are generally 3-5 lbs. So let’s just say $1 a pound, even though it’s really more like 50 cents.
35 lbs of cabbage costs $35! The extra padding I gave to the cost of cabbage per pound will absorb the tiny amount of salt you’ll need to get it fermenting.
Ok so how about Kombucha?
You’ll be drinking a kombucha everyday.
That’s $6 a day x 7 days a week =$42 a week x 52 weeks a year =$2,184. You could go with a cheaper brand at $4 that’s still $1,456. (I sell mine for $6 a bottle or $5 for a refill, this covers my bottling/labeling costs and Certified Kitchen rental the Health Department demand I use, this is why kombucha is so expensive in the store! Plus I do everything myself including labeling the bottles so it takes me around 24-30 hours a week to make and sell at the market)
What could you do with an extra TWO GRAND a year?!
So what would it cost you to make at home?
$111 a year
If you want to make different flavors you can definitely spend more a year, however you can simply change what kind of tea you use to make a totally different kombucha!!!
That’s a savings of $2,073 EVERY YEAR!
You can thank me in the comments below 😉
Here are the big guns!
$730 a year. That’s putting your trust in that pill on top of the costs.
Once you start making your own ferments at home you will be able to eliminate this expense all together!
So if you wanted to drink a kombucha for breakfast, pop a probiotic with lunch, and enjoy some kraut with dinner that will run you…
Buying grand total: $3,330
You’ll spend $146 in supplies, after my workshop, for a WHOLE YEAR of fermented goodies!!!
You’ll save $3,184 EACH YEAR by making your own vs. buying at the store!!!
This is only 3 out of the 8 different kinds of ferments I’ll be teaching in the upcoming Funky Ferment Workshop!
Can you even imagine?!
