Calculateur de Ratio Sucre-Kombucha — Formule
## How to Calculate Kombucha Ingredients
### Standard Ratios
**Sugar: 50-90 g per liter of water** (standard is about 70 g/L or 1 cup per gallon)
**Tea: 3-5 tea bags per liter** (black or green tea)
**Starter: 10% of batch volume** (mature kombucha from a previous batch)
### Process
1. Brew strong sweet tea and cool to room temperature.
2. Add starter liquid and SCOBY.
3. Cover with a cloth and ferment 7-14 days at 68-85°F.
4. Taste every few days; when the balance of sweet and tart suits you, bottle it.
### The SCOBY
The SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast) is the living culture that ferments the sweet tea. It consumes the sugar and produces organic acids, CO2, and a small amount of alcohol.

Exemple Résolu
A 1-gallon (3785 mL) batch with standard sugar and 4 bags per liter.
- Sugar = 3.785 x 70 = 265 g (about 1.3 cups)
- Tea bags = ceil(3.785 x 4) = 16 bags
- Starter liquid = 3785 x 0.10 = 379 mL (about 1.5 cups)
- Ferment for 7-14 days, then bottle for second fermentation.
