Closing Keynote
summary
Kombucha brewing becomes a concrete metaphor: a Scoby (symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast) sits in sweet tea, whole fruit yields fizz while fruit juice kills carbonation, and a practical two-day flavoring rule (strain, rebottle, then seven more days) prevents bottle explosions. Continuous-brew setup uses flip-top bottles; starter gear totals about £41 startup cost. Lessons tie to engineering: run cheap prototypes, list controlled variables, use worst-case and cost–benefit analyses, and cultivate a growth mindset to overcome paralysis and comparison.
