The other bag is used compost I put in a bin when I emptied containers at the end of last year, then I spruce it with some rotted farm manure and add Q4 fertilser to make it into

Hello TeeGee,
Well I saw "Home Brew" in the title and thought I must read that - for obvious reasons.
Interesting post, even if not quite what I expected.

Admire the quality of your home brew even if like beersmith it wasn't quite what I expected.
