No experience doing it, but i always read people simply adding more molasses to feed the herd as long as it is still being aerated. Personally, i use within 24 to 36 hours (plenty frothy) and any leftovers goes into the regular house plants or tossed in the yard.
"And for the compost tea and the banana tea do you need a bubler in the water?"
Addingaeration will help the tea mature faster as most aerobic organisms have a higher metabolic rate than anaerobic organisms do. Anaerobic bacteria also created nasty compounds such as hydrogen sulfide, which is lethal in small concentrations. At 1-10ppm it can irritate the mucus membranes. At 10-50ppm it can cause dizziness, nausea, headache, vomiting and upper respiratory irritation. At a concentration of 1000ppm it is instantly lethal in one breath. Nasty stuff.... and it's highly flammable. Now, scary shit aside. Most of the activity at the root level is aerobic anyway. So why not introduce aerobic bacteria and their metabolic products to your roots via tea??? Besides.... letting your tea go anaerobic smell like shit.

i thought useing uncomposted organic materials . was unsafe because of pathogens
i like to stick out .
well first, im no doctor, or biologist, or whatever. but id imagine the uncomposted organic material would have to have the pathogen already, for it to be an issue. seeing as how i use previous pot plants as my primary organic matter, if they had pathogens, i would have smoked them already....
otherwise, i dont see much issue. it is how nature keeps its own dirt fresh, by composting organic materials (+ bugs and everything)
Either way, i feel pretty healthy. =)

i havent had any problems with pathogens,
all that happens is the micro organisms feeds and breaks down the organic matter its a natural process once all the sugars and material is broken down the microbes go dorment anyways i beleive until more organic material is added..
good question though ill have to reasearch into that one abit more deeply,,
if it went anaerobic now and gets moldy and whatnot like if you leave a lid on a bucket full of organic material breaking down thats a different story very bad stuff growing in there!!
