Aerated compost tea has emerged as a very promising new technology. Seeking a method of extending the use of compost, early innovators bubbled air into a mixture of compost and water to produce a microbially rich solution. This “compost tea” was applied to both the soil and directly to plant surfaces with the intent to enrich the soil biology and protect the plant from bugs and diseases. Numerous studies have been done on the effectiveness of compost tea as a pest control. According to the studies, when properly formulated and applied, the compost tea has been shown to be effective at reducing disease incidence.
The Willamette Organics BrewMaster systems utilize a strictly air driven technology. The system is built around a portable extractor suspended in water, that confines compost in a screened chamber while pumping air through it to gently separate the microbes, soluble nutrients and growth promoting substances from the compost. Once the microbes are floating free in the water, they have immediate access to microbial nutrients added to the tank. Depending on the extractor size and air supply, the system can brew batches of between 5 and 1,500 gallons of compost tea.
Generally accepted methods of evaluating compost teas involve a laboratory direct count of the microbial biomass and diversity. When brewed appropriately with good compost, certain thresholds of bacterial, fungal, protozoa and nematode biomass are met or surpassed, the compost tea is considered to be of good quality, implying its ability to improve soil and plant performance.
The Willamette Organics BrewMaster compost tea brewing systems, featuring the Norsen extractor, when used with appropriate guidelines, will consistently produce high quality compost tea. The Norsen extractors are designed to effectively strip compost of its microbes, and humic substances. The extractor incorporates sufficient aeration and turbulence to produce good compost tea when used according to the instructions provided. There are three sizes of Norsen extractor produced by Willamette Organics, the P8 for 1,000+ gallon brewers, the P6 designed to brew from 50 to 1,000 gallons and the smaller P4 designed to brew between 10 and 30 gallons. We also manufacture the BrewMaster 20 for small farmers and gardeners and the BrewMaster 5 Bucket Brewer for home use.
