Subject: [compost_tea] mesh size for compost holding bag
Does someone have an idea of what size in microns the largest
micro-organisms that we are trying to extract are?
Just curious because I would like to get a nice high quality food
grade piece of of silk screen to hold the compost in my brewer as I
have used these as filter media in other projects with much success.
They are rated by the mesh opening size in microns and come in a wide
variety of mesh sizes.
Shalom
