Love everything about this brewer! My Garden loves it so I love it! I have had nothing but great results, I've even checked my tea under a microscope...everything looked great!

Pump and tubing were sized correctly. Enjoyed the mesh bag included which works very well for it's intended purpose. Now for the draw backs. . The "BubbleSnake" itself, which was the whole reason I took a chance on a bundled pump/accessories/bubble aerator in the first place, is very disappointing. The concept is close to workable, but the actual size of the gasses emitted from the BubbleSnake are PATHETIC! GIANT bubbles come out of these seemingly 1/32"-1/16" holes drilled into some pvc that has been shaped with a PVC blanket. The bubbles are far FAR FAR too big to give the needed O2 dissolved into solution. Anyone who has learned anything about microbes and living organisms in water knows that the recipe is as MUCH dissolved O2 into your tea brewer as possible. . . .Whelp, this one doesn't leave you with a warm foamy feeling in the morning after you have been brewing all night(or multiple nights depending on temperature). It could be modified, perhaps with a very fine mesh screen zip-tied around the assembly to FORCE the larger bubbles to break down and create more surface area, but the novelty has now worn off. I used it for a season as it fit my 55gal drum and I liked the concept. . . . But I can't recommend this product to anyone as it really needs more re-design consideration. To close with a positive note, they did include a nice recipe card for beginners in the tea-arena, albeit very heavy on the animal products. Keep working on it TeaLab!!
