First Compost Tea - Boogie Brew

[keysareme]

The tea's been bubbling just over 19 hours.

Here is was at 15 hours -

Here she is now at just over 19 hours -

5 gallon bucket, 2 air stones, pump, burlap bag.

Water temp started at 64f or so. At 15 hours temp was 71f. Current temp is 70f.

Contents of the tea; Boogie Brew Veganic Compost Tea Mix, Worm Gold Plus EWC, Excelerite, and Sea 90 Minerals.

Says to be brewed from 4-36 hours all on your choice.

I'm looking for any input from what you can see of the images posted. Let me know. I would like to harvest some of this and use it now, but if waiting will only increase the quality, I can plan for that and work accordingly. Thanks

R.o water

It is not RO Water, the water is run through the Boogie Blue Water Filter. I can share some info on it if interested.

The foam is letting me know she's brewed and ready right? Now do I pH the Tea or just pour it in?

Also, is there any harm in just continuing to re-amend the burlap sack, when I want to brew more, add to what is the burlap? The already brewed materials aren't hurting the new batch of Tea right?

I harvested enough for my medical plants, and left the remaining to brew for my fruit and vegetable plants. I will share results.

How long can you keep tea

How long can you keep tea

I was interested in knowing this as well. I'm not making enough per batch to keep some, yet. I would say it could be put in a fridge for a few hours at least.

I'm brewing enough for my plants to all have some, but not enough to have any extra after. I took just over a gallon from the bucket, and replaced it with fresh clean water, and amended the burlap with more compost tea ingredients. Hopefully I will have a full 5 gallons ready for my fruit and vegetable garden by around 1 or 2pm.

Went and checked on the Brew. In about 30 minutes the activity doubled from when I added the fresh gallon. Excited to see where it is around feeding time on Tuesday! Look out world, Farmer G's Brewing Compost Teas!
