Re: [compost_tea] Molasses
Propionic acid is an organic acid, three carbons in the chain, and is a good
food resource for most simple-food-using bacteria and fungi.
The concern with molasses, or ANY simple sugar, is that it gets bacteria
growing really fast, and you need to make certain that oxygen does not drop too
low while brewing.
