Nick Robertson has a PhD in Bioengineering and has spent seven years in the kombucha industry. He started Rare Combinations to solve a problem he had himself: no practical way to test alcohol on-site. Since then he has worked with breweries of all sizes on alcohol compliance, fermentation troubleshooting, and QC system design.

As a kombucha fermentation consultant, Nick works with producers of all sizes on alcohol compliance strategy, QC system design, and process troubleshooting. If you have a problem with fermentation or quality control, there is a good chance he has seen it.
