Vital Landscaping has a line of "true brewers"
60, 110, 175, 300 and 1000 gallon sizes.
Also have you guys used cotton seed meal in your brews? I heard through the grapevine that adding cottonseed meal to your tea and applying during flowering will result in denser flowers. Any truth to that? Ive yet to experiment but will be doing so shortly. I will report what I find, but if any one has used it and can comment, it would be appreciated.

From the manufacturer of the True Brewer machines:
True Brewer (TM)
30 Gallon Professional Compost Tea Brewing System
$1,400.00 FOB

well I found from the NCPA (nation cottonseed producers association) that 41% cottonseedmeal is npk 6.5, 2.5, 1.7
Also (sorry I cant edit my posts for some reason, so i had to make a new one) dont most teas dilute 1 part tea to 3 parts h2o give or take some?
So a 1000 gallon brewer can make 3000 gallons of usable tea per batch?

The 30-gallon system is made using the following:
30 gallon cone-bottom tank (food grade) - $97.00 from The Tank Depot and others
The pump is an Alita and it's probably the Alita AL40 Linear Air Pump - $165.00 and lower
Miscellaneous interconnects, air-lines, diffuser - $150.00 maximum

Just goes to show, if you really do your homework youll save a few dollars, and some aggravation later.
Nice breakdown CC/

Isn't stainless bad for microbes? I was using a wire whisk to stir my teas until I read somewhere metal was bad so I started using a wooden spoon. Based on those prices, I need to get into the brewer business ASAP...
Has anyone used wheat germ to make a tea? It has a ton of folic acid, phosphorous and cysteine, which plays a role in developing skunky aromas

Are you sure that is Alita? It looks like Hailea
It is not that simple. It depends on microbial density. I usually do not dilute.

Some iPhone trich shots courtesy of a new gizmo I picked up that turns my camera into a 60x magnifier.
Does it work with iPad 3 (Retina Display)?

I imagine the hardware would, but it interfaces with a case that fits the iPhone - a friend from the industry is the distro/"mfg" (most likely just a private label of a chinese product) - I'll ask him tomorrow
Okay - I don't know this product but I've seen some other products that are like to described - a case attachment deal. Pretty nice stuff out there.
Have you tried 645 Pro camera app? Pretty damn nice and produces 'almost RAW' files. Interface is a bit over the top but it's one of the best.
I've become a collector of camera apps lately. I should try using them.

This is basically the same as mine (but not branded 'KindStack') - for $3.00, it's hard to say no: http://www.amazon.com/Apple-iPhone-Magnify-Microscope-Light/dp/B0055V5PEA
Just downloaded the Camera+ app - gonna have to check out this 645 pro thing...

Camera+ is my favorite for point & shoot - snapshots
If you like to shoot black & white images, Hueless is a good one to consider. Produces very sharp photos.

To deviate back onto topic here - I'm working on a proposal for running 12 lights in a warehouse the same way I run my garden at home. Even paying retail, I know I'm spending way less at home than I would going with bottled nutrients, etc., but whats the best way for me to determine accurate pricing on a warehouse production scale?
My initial thought is that 6 plants/light in beds would make it easiest to amend/recycle appropriately (with new beds subbed into the light space while the spent ones are recovering for 6-12 weeks). Ideally, I would like to feed botanical teas and compost teas - I don't see any reason I can't just scale up my home set up x 10 for this (from 5 gal to 50 gal), and maintain the same brew schedule.
Is there any practical difference when it comes to recycling soil and/or microbe activity if I increase the scale/recycle in a single heap? How is this traditionally approached in commercial environments?

Morning toes! That feels great, doesn't it? I've let the garden go in the heat this year. Looking forward to mowing it down in the next couple days to prepare for the fall garden, and I get to dump all that green goodness onto the heap.
