Hi Dorothy,

I have build my own version exactly because I did not have that kind of
money to spend. The result was so good than many people have asked me
to build also another unit so I gradually entered this business here in
Brazil.
So far I have made more than 20 units which are spread all over the country
making Compost Teas that is helping several farmers from Strickly organic to
the most conventional ones. I have sold most of the units to farmers who
grows
ornamental and have abused chemiclas creating resitant types of fungi.
I know that my unit works because all the reports that I have are favourable
so far
My unit brews Tea  using a Vortex Nozzle that incorporates large amounts
of air and thereby giving the organisms ( specially bacteria) the necessary
oxygen to grow and multiply. I have also created an special blend of
ingredients
that goes inside the tank which feeds the microbes very efficiently.
For those who want to build their own unit I am selling the Vortex Nozzle
and
a filter that goes in the unit. All the rest ( tank, pump, pipeline, etccc)
can be bought
locally. If you are interested please contact me directly in the address
below:

Regards


Jose

I would like to hear from Jose (or others) who have
built their own compost tea machines and gotten good
test results on the quality of the tea.   I understand
that the design and ability to maintain an aerboic tea
makes a huge difference.  Also, the tank should be
desgined so there aren't a lot of corners for
anaerboic  bio films to build up  (all from Dr. Elaine
