Documented fungal food plus a great penetrant/surfactant. Gets the CT into
the ground and feeds the fungi. I too add it after brewing.
I used to add during brewing but had foam problems. Also had highest fungal
numbers (measured) with that brew - Saponyn. I did a couple of brews with
yucca with a preservative (sodium b) and the fungal numbers were nonexistant,
again measured. As Elaine says don't use preservatives.
