Request:
Clear glass jug, spigot near bottom (San Francisco, Twin Peaks)
Expired
Hello kombucha brewers here in San Francisco: I'm looking for a clear glass jug / jar of about a gallon capacity with a working non leaking spigot near the bottom for brewing kombucha in my kitchen. To give you an idea of what I'm referring to it looks like the dispenser you might see for wine, lemonade or water at a buffet or picnic. I've also enclosed a photo to give you an idea of what i'm looking for. I have a stand to hold something like this and now all I need is the jug / jar for brewing and dispensing. A jar / jug like this allows you to dispense the brew without having to tip the jar and disturb the fragile SCOBY. Also if you have a piece of clean SCOBY to share, that'd be great as well. By clean, I mean a SCOBY with no added or extra sugars, fruit juices, unnecessary additives or preservatives that inhibit fermentation. If you have an extra one of these jars / jugs like the one described above, that you're not using, I'd appreciate hearing from you. Hope to hear from some of the great recyclers here in San Francisco ( San Francsico only please ) passing their extra unwanted or uneeded items to others ( like me) who can use them instead of sending them to the landfill. Thanks, Bill

Fresh rosemary cuttings (San Francisco, Twin Peaks)
Expired
Hello gardeners here in San Francisco. I'm looking for fresh rosemary cuttings for the container herb garden on my apartment balcony. According to what I understand, these cuttings are best taken in the spring and should be green stemmed as woody stems don't propagate well. The next time you prune your rosemary bushes or take cuttings for cooking, I'd appreciate hearing from you and getting a few of these to propagate for my herb garden. I'm on Twin Peaks in San Francisco and would appreciate hearing from anybody who has cuttings to share. Thanks in advance for your generosity. Hope to hear from you soon, Bill

Glass Jug W/ Working Bottom Spigot (San Francisco, Twin Peaks)
Expired
Hello kombucha brewers here in San Francisco, Happy and prosperous 2024. I'm looking for a clear glass jug / jar with the capacity of about a gallon with a working - non leaking spigot near the bottom for brewing and dispensing kombucha. To give you an idea of what I'm looking for, this glass jug - jar is what you might see at a buffet or picnic to dispense, wine, water, iced tea or lemonade etc, failing that, it looks like the receptacle with the spigot near the bottom of an old fashioned water cooler that holds the water ready for dispensing from the 5 gallon upturned water bottle. I'v also posted a photo of what I'm l;ooking for as reference. You slide your glass under the spigot and dispense your brew. A jug like this allows dispensing the brew without tipping your brewing jug / jar and disturbing the fragile SCOBY. I've got the SCOBY, now all I need is a brewing - dispensing jug - jar. Hopefully there are some generous kombucha brewers here in San Francisco that have an extra clean glass brewing - dispensing jug - jar with a working - non leaking spigot near the bottom they're not using and are willing to pass on to another kombucha brewer. I've heard kombucha is good for gut issues and I'd like to brew my own and save some money. By brewing your own kombucha, you avoid additives and extra sugar that are often in commercial kombucha. I hope to hear from some of the generous kombucha brewers and generous folks out there passing on their still usable, unneeded or unwanted items to others who can use them, Thanks,
