Do you still use 8 oz. of starter kombucha in a batch without a
SCOBY? Or do I need to put more liquid?

8 ounces is the minimum to lower the pH to a safe level. If you don't
have a SCOBY, 8 ounces is okay but it will just take longer. You can
really speed up this process by adding closer to 16 ounces of starter
Kombucha (or even more), or better yet making a SCOBY from scratch a
week ahead of time.
