DIY vortex brewer, looking for designs.

I have had my worm bin for several months now and I have it under control... I didnt want to think about a brewer until I had good castings first.

I have a friend that is into building saltwater fish tanks and he mostly did the plumbing on the systems. He found this brewer on youtube and said that he could do something very similar. I will attach a link to a video, the guy flips you off the whole time, but tell me if this design is worth following. I will attach the link to the air pump that I had in mind also. Thanks!

I wanted a larger brewer so that I can it on the lawn and flowers also.

I found a tow behind trailer that sprays liquid fertilizer on craigslist.. I have a couple of acres and I think that the two would be great for the yard. Bore I found a 150gal with the sprayers in the back and not hand held.

Wow that's a lot of water.

If it can be all in one, mobile, easy too take apart and clean, obviously that would all be ideal. Your going to need a strong pump for that.

Also becarefull with used fertilizer stuff from cl, could of been used with pestcides and other bad stuff, which I'm sure u already thought about.
 
This is similar to the one I plan to build this spring. The guy I locally sourced my worms from has a real Vortex brand he said is always full and running during grow season for his organic produce he grows and sells on his vegetable farm.

 
I made this brewer on my first grow a while back. Took a break from growing and just getting back into it. Its just made of some plumbing parts and stuff I had around the house. Worked good.

Only issue was the pump.. needed this commercial one which is expensive. All other ones were not powerful enough.

Lucky found one on kijiji..
