Calcolatore Rapporto Zucchero Kombucha — Formula

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.

Esempio Risolto

A 1-gallon (3785 mL) batch with standard sugar and 4 bags per liter.

  1. Sugar = 3.785 x 70 = 265 g (about 1.3 cups)
  2. Tea bags = ceil(3.785 x 4) = 16 bags
  3. Starter liquid = 3785 x 0.10 = 379 mL (about 1.5 cups)
  4. Ferment for 7-14 days, then bottle for second fermentation.
