How to use this calculator

Enter the first-stage date, ordered stages with planned days and equipment, and any other inclusive equipment reservations.

Stages occupy full calendar dates. Equipment is released at the following stage boundary. Conflicting bookings are listed; the planner does not automatically move stages.

A worked example

A November 2 start with fourteen primary-stage days and seven conditioning days finishes on November 23. A fermenter booking beginning November 14 conflicts with the primary stage.

Does the finish date mean fermentation is complete?

No. Calendar durations do not establish fermentation readiness, safe packaging or food safety. Use your process measurements and appropriate brewing guidance.

Which calendar and years are supported?

Use Gregorian dates from 1900 through 2100, with results in that range. Daily plans allow up to 366 dates; dark-sky searches allow 31 nights. Durations, capacities and policy rules are supplied by you. Astronomy uses the bundled Astronomy Engine, sea-level geometry and browser time-zone rules. Timed exports use UTC instants; date-only events do not assign a clock time. Copy, CSV and print include calculation assumptions. Nothing is booked or scheduled outside this page.

What happens to my dates?

Calculations run on your device. Saving a calculation is optional and keeps it in this browser. A setup link contains the dates and settings you entered; anyone with the link can read them. Use one tab per saved calculator. Clear saved data from Privacy & settings.
