So what are the rules of thumb for the amount of compost (or vermicompost) in a 5 gallon, 50 gallon, 200 gallon and 400 gallon brewer.

Scaleable....most things are....but not the compost/humus. And, depending on the stuff you use, you have to be careful with the molasses.....
 
Notice I did not put sugars in my "base formula."  Bacteria are easy to grow and multiply. Fungi don't multiply in tea, only grow. They are the hardest to get good numbers so I start there and then work on bacteria if needed.
