Re: [compost_tea] air bubble size



At least in our experience, the really fine bubbles are a problem. 

There could be a consideration of damage to organism membranes when liquid is super-saturated with air.  Hydrogen peroxide has it's sterilizing impact by oxidizing membranes.  That's what makes peroxide work so well.  So, would super-saturating water do the same thing?  I suspect that is another mechanism for the reduction in organism numbers with really fine bubble aeration.
