Hello, Have you decided what kind of compost tea you're doing? You can do the soaking compost tea or the aerated compost tea which would need oxygen and to be agitated(a little more complex but better and less stinky). But for supplies most teas are pretty similar. You need no chlorinated water(so let the tap water sit out for at least 24 hours, an innoculant- compost or worm castings(there's one called olly mountain compost that's very good), and then some sort of food source for the fungi/ bacteria often molasses/kelp extract/ fish hydrolysate/humic acid. A nutrient tea brew example could be bat guano/kelp powder/ unsulfured molasses/humic acid/fish hydrolysate. Also if you did a plant soak, nettle can be very good for potassium and phosphorus. Good luck with the grow and the brewing. ✌️
