Compost Tea Kit: 5 Gallon Get Brewing Special~ BubbleSnake, Bag, Air Pump & Tubing (714GPH Air Pump)

This is an absolutely great product for the dollar value. The customer service seems pretty legit as well. You really don't even need an instruction manual unless you're new to compost. Super easy to use and pretty much self-explanatory. My one and only complaint is cleaning it is rather annoying. The bag that it comes with to hold your compost seems very difficult to get completely clean and considering what you're dealing with, bacteria, poo, ect... it seems like that would be on the list of things to have with a product. Part of the snake is removable but I would say in future models make the entire snake able to be broken down for a good cleaning. But all in all a superior product. Cant recommend this brand enough.

I just bought the small bubble snake kit with the 951gallon air pump for my backyard mini orchard and I absolutely love it! Pros: efficient, does exactly what it says it will and fast. It’s been bubbling for 30 minutes and I already have foam on top. Cons, kind of loud, but if put in the shed or garage on something solid that doesn’t block it’s vents and ports, it won’t really be a problem. For the larger pump, you definitely need to tie it down or it will get away from you. There’s so much air going through (I love it) that it kind of slowly lifts off and splashes. IMPORTANT: this might be obvious but I’m learning the hard way, if you want to brew 5 gallons, use a 10 gallon bucket, for 10 gallons use 15 or 20 gallon bucket due to splashback and foamy goodness. If after getting a larger bucket for your batch isn’t working, a lid with a slot cut into it would work beautifully, but shouldn’t be needed with a larger bucket. Also, they really seem to care about their customers. I spent a few days going back and forth with questions, they were more than happy to answer all of them. I highly recommend this.

I believe this is going to last my lifetime easy. Relatively quiet. I suspend on a bungie cord to tone vibration down. Pump is powerful, bigger than any aquarium pump I've used. You can see it's commercial grade. A wise purchase. So 48 hrs my organic fertilizer tea is ready to apply.

Easy to set up once you have a 5 gallon bucket. Works well. Not exactly quiet, but Ok if have some place to put it, like covered porch or some place out of ear shot. The one thing it does not mention when setting up, the snake floats up. You will need to secure it down. Just filling the pouch is not enough to weight it down. Mine also came with a manifold in case want to set up more than one. Looks like a nice one if I need it, but needs different size tubing which was not included.

Very easy to set up, use, and clean. I have the stronger of the two recommended air pumps, and it makes the tea bubble A LOT. To make 5 gal of tea, you're going to need a bin or garbage can, something that gives you extra room for the bubbles and foam. The photo shows 4 gal of tea bubbling in a 5 gal bucket (after about 36 hours). The bubbles stayed in the 5 gal bucket, but the foam spilled over, which is why I put the whole set up in a plastic bin.

I just brewed my first batch of compost tea with this equipment. I learned a lot. Their website was helpful. It is well designed to work in a five gallon bucket but after an hour the aeration tube started to float upward. I wrapped a bungee cord through the metal ring and around the bucket and it held it in place nicely. The motor worked great. I was confused by extra attachments that came from the motor manufacturer but realized they weren’t all necessary. I saw reviews about foaming over, so I set my bucket in a tray but foam develops very slowly and didn’t even really start until well over 16 hours. I didn’t observe any overflow. I highly recommend this for a compost tea beginner like me.

Easy to set use and clean. First two teas brewed were fantastic. Used my own brew. May try your recipe at later date. If it ain't broke don't fix it. My recipe working well.

Made some really top grade compost tea with this kit. It came directly from tea lab, which in my opinion is better than some Amazon warehouse. Super easy to set up and use. My only complaint is it's too loud to use inside your home if it's freezing outside or you have no other choice. A+ for tea lab
