So i was looking for a thread on compost tea brewers and i didnt see one so i decided to start one. ;)

This is my diy vortex/air lift style tea brewer i made it from plastic tubs and tubes and a sink drain.the air pump isnt powerful enough to make an actual vortex but it does put a stream of water over a mesh basket with compost in it. That coupled with the bubbling action of the air pump should work good to aerate the water and grow some microbes.

Its not a perfect design but it will work to make a 1 gallon batch of compost tea.

Im interested to see other peoples designs and processes in brewing, so post some pics and give a short description of your tea brewer whether it be diy or whatever.

Here's a Pic of the Custom copper pump connect to hose bib attachment and the prefilter stage with hash bag/air filter surrounding pump laced tight so foliar sprays aren't chunky.

Brewer is standard 55Gal blue barrel. Wanted to eventually go Stainless. Pump and airstones really Pump some serious air but there are definitely stronger out there. I'll post a brew soon.
