It's a new model of small compost tea maker by Bob Norsen from Alaska. He doesn't have a web site, but his large model 30-500 gallons is recommended by The Soil Food Web <soilfoodweb.com> and the results of their testing is under "Bob's Brews" on their Compost Tea list/serve page on <www.groups.yahoo.com>, but you have to be a member and have Excel to see them under "Files" on their page. The Bitti-O-Later can make from 3-30 gallons and will have its testing results for microorganisms in the file sometime in the future. It costs $165 and if we decide to get one, I'll try to get it on our road grant.
I'm interested in this one because we have a solar electric system and run on DC power with a Trace inverter. The 24 hr. compost tea requires constant power and our system can't spare very much for that long a time. This maker is within our system capabilities. I'm still researching all aspects of this and that's why I'm questioning Allan about his conclusions after the BD Viticulture Conference.
