We just finished a full run of compost tea at SFI, with full organism,
oxygen and E. coli determinations. Regardless of level of molasses used -
up to 10% - there was no E. coli detected in the compost.
We'll get this into the scientific literature ASAP.
Great Elaine !
we added the e-coli test to the last sample we sent in. As we will be
exhibiting our machines at the Guelph Organic COnference this weekend I
want to be ready for that question.
I think that Elaine had mentioned that even compost with a low level ecoli
can be successfully brewed without showing ecoli in the finished tea , is
this true ?
