Frequently Asked Questions

- A typical batch takes 7–14 days for first fermentation plus 2–4 days for carbonation. Total: about 10–18 days.
- Do I need a SCOBY to start brewing?
- Yes — you can get one from a friend, buy online, or grow your own from raw store-bought kombucha.
- Is FermentLog really free?
- Yes! Track up to 2 active batches, manage your jars, and access all recipes. No credit card required.
- Can I track ferments other than kombucha?
- FermentLog is starting with kombucha but supports kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi, and more coming soon.
