[compost_tea] Re: Re pre brew innoculatied :fungal compost test results!



Dear Elaine,
One brewer you didn't mention was Hendrikus Schraven's modified
Growing Solutions machine. What would you say about it?

Where would the fungal spores come from that you mention with the EPM
machine? Can we add them? Would the process be similar to Jeff's
method of pre-brew innoculation of the fungal compost?
