Barrel compost, or CPP, is something that BD has to offer organic farmers and sustainable agriculture on a much wider scale, by the way. There are different ways to tweak the recipe and make special cultures. In India, CPP is getting wider and wider attention among farmers far and wide.
I don't think that anyone who uses it doubts the effectiveness of Maria Thun's barrel compost. Maria Thun mentions in her book that she worked for a very long time to arrive at a recipe that works as dynamically as the one she recommends and that JPI and Hugh Lovel work with. She is especially impressed with the mineral dynamics that dried and crushed egg shells bring to the barrel compost recipe.
Another job for chromas, no doubt.
My point here is that 'more' may not mean 'more' when one is playing with a recipe developed over the years by one of our leading biodynamic researchers.
Of course, it's your shit and your hour of potentizing it and your compost prep kits and your 7 weeks to 6months of waiting for the 'brew' to mature. Do what thou wilt.
