Bruce Deuley & Bob Webster – Compost Tea (1 of 9)
An entertaining and insightful tag team effort from gardener & radio host Bob Webster & organic specialist & radio host Bruce Deuley. The subject is compost tea and how you can make a brewer yourself for less than $35. It was a bit chilly, but got pretty warm once the pavilion was filled to capacity. I had a laugh out loud moment when Bruce walked in (before I started filming) and was offered a compost tea handout by a nice lady (who didn’t know it was Bruce). Bruce was a sport and said it would help him sound like he knows what he’s talking about. Good times!
Bruce’s tea bucket design placed 2nd as judged by Dr. Elaine Ingham (http://www.soilfoodweb.com/). This is impressive considering other contenders tea makers range from $1000 and up!

Thanks so much, I discussed this with my husband who does all the work lol he’s really excited about all this, thanks for all the informative videos
I’m would say yes. …
I’m would say yes. Bruce & other brewers have talked about using different types of compost & recipes. I would avoid walmart nursery items, but if that’s all you got, then go with it. There might be some special considerations, so email Bruce through his website (located in the video info) and ask. Or you can call him during his show, which is Sat, 5 to 7 PM CST on KTSA. It streams live from the KTSA website and they have a toll-free number. Hope this helps & happy brewing! -OT
