Bio Canna nutes and Soil questions.

microbe man is self educated. So take what he says with grain of salt. He is more of a salesman. All those "experiments" are to market and sell his ridiculously over priced vortex brewers and microscopes. Even things were changed on his site. After claims he made were disproven in the rols thread and vegan thread

Look it up. There's more then one way to get microbes into a compost tea.

I don't know Tim, but the guy was nice enough to start up a site when he had nothing and share his experience with those who'd listen. Nobody is right about everything right? In science, when the facts change, so does your opinion. It's an evolution of clarity.

I got a better idea, why don't you go look it up buttercup. This is directly from Tim's site:

These two ingredients, perhaps surprisingly, comprise the total of inputs in most of our brews these days. This simple recipe, if using an efficient ACT maker and good quality [vermi]compost results in a microbial population made up of the important three groups. This is the only recipe used to date, in all the videos on my Youtube channel.

Gross. Vermi compost is not castings though. Similar, but the end product is different.
His brewing method is likely different from the method used during the experiment. I have no way of knowing without asking him, but in an ideal lab set up you aren't going to want to have things you can't control for. I'm wondering if he isolated the microbes and added them to aerated water to which he then added different food stock and observed.
