Brewing Tips
Basic Brewing
• Use pure water for brewing; chlorine and chloramine can negatively affect microbes.
Aerate water for 1 hour before brewing.
• Humisoil and Bioactivator are added to every brew to make Bountea.
• Aerate the Bountea for 24–48 hours at temperatures between 60ºF and 85ºF. An
optimum temperature is 75ºF or 24ºC. Bountea heaters are available upon request.
• Bountea often foams during brewing. Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil to reduce foam if
needed.
More Tips
• Add Root Web, M3 or B3 to Bountea during the last hour of brewing. Do not add M3
at the beginning; it may cause an anaerobic reaction.
• If you brew for more than 48 hours and up to 72 hours, add an extra ½ cup of
Bioactivator per 4 gallons of Bountea.
• Brew only the quantities you need. Keep Bountea
aerated until used. Plan for application wtihin 6 Warning: Never use Bountea
hours after brewing. if it smells very sour or ‘bad.’
• Bountea can be refrigerated for up to 2 weeks. A slight ‘fishy’ smell is normal
when M3 is added to Bountea.
Brew Kit Clean Up
• Rinse residue from brewer, diffuser, air tubes and strainer.
• If needed, disinfect with hydrogen peroxide solution, not bleach.
• Store brewer and all ingredients in a cool, dry place out of sunlight.
