Sorry, this stuff is changing so rapidly that even elaine cannot even keep up with it! It did surprise me the other day, however, when Elaine said in a private conversation that it does not actually appear that an impellor pump used with flow form damages any substantial quantity of micro-life. Be that as it may, by Elaine's own statements, the best tea currently is being made by the EarthWorks brewer. The Earthworks brewer only pumps air. Diffusion equipment is available at any good aquarium shop or from the Aeration Store (www.aerationstore.com) on the internet. All you need to infuse enough oxygen if you are using diffusion tubing and/or devices from the aeration store is a good aquarium pump.
