Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about using this application.
What is a Scoby hotel and why do I need a feeding schedule?
A Scoby hotel is a long-term storage vessel for your extra Symbiotic Cultures of Bacteria and Yeast (SCOBYs). Without proper feeding, the SCOBYs can become starved of nutrients, leading to mold growth or ineffective fermentation. Maintaining a consistent feeding schedule is essential for keeping the culture healthy, active, and ready for your next batch of kombucha. Our schedule generator simplifies this process by calculating the optimal intervals for adding fresh sweet tea to your hotel. By inputting your hotel's volume and SCOBY population, you can ensure that your culture remains in an acidic, safe environment, preventing spoilage and keeping your starters at peak viability for years to come.
How does the feeding schedule generator work?
The generator uses standard home-brewing ratios to determine the metabolic rate of your SCOBYs based on the volume of liquid in your vessel. By asking for the number of SCOBYs and the current volume of the tea, the algorithm estimates how quickly the bacteria will consume the available sugars in the liquid. Once the input is processed, the tool provides a clear, day-by-day or week-by-week calendar indicating exactly when you need to top off the hotel with a fresh nutrient solution. It helps remove the guesswork from the maintenance process, ensuring you neither over-feed nor neglect your valuable cultures.
Is my data saved by this application?
No, this application is built with strict privacy and security in mind. We do not use cookies, local storage, or server-side databases to save your configuration. All calculations are performed entirely in-memory within your browser session for your convenience. Because of this architecture, please note that if you refresh the browser page, your generated schedule will be cleared. We recommend printing your schedule or saving it as a PDF once the generator provides the results, as this ensures your maintenance plan is preserved while keeping your personal data completely ephemeral and secure.
Can I customize the feeding intervals?
Yes, while the generator provides a standard recommendation based on common brewing practices, you can adjust the inputs to match your specific environment. Factors like ambient temperature and the strength of your SCOBYs significantly impact the fermentation rate, which is why we allow you to tweak your feeding intervals. We encourage users to observe their hotel's behavior; if you notice the liquid becoming overly vinegary too quickly, you can adjust the settings in our tool to increase the feeding frequency. This level of customization ensures the tool adapts to the unique needs of your specific brewing environment, rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all approach.
