NOVELTY - A production compost tea apparatus (10) comprises an auger conveyor having water discharge spray nozzles mounted for directing water onto a compost material being conveyed by the auger conveyor to wash microorganisms from the compost material.    USE - The invention is used for producing a compost tea by providing an elongated separator housing; introducing compost material to the inlet end of the separator housing; operating the auger conveyor where the compost material is moved through the separator housing; discharging liquid from the spray nozzles to wash microorganisms from the compost material; and collecting the microorganism-laden liquid for use as compost tea.    ADVANTAGE - The invented apparatus produces compost tea so that tea may be sprayed upon the ground to enhance the treatment of soil.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - A production compost tea apparatus comprises a hopper (12) adapted to contain compost material; an elongated separator housing having first and second end, where the first end of the separator housing is in communication with the hopper so that compost material is delivered to the first end of the separator housing; perforated tubular member positioned in the separator housing between the first and second ends; an auger conveyor rotatably mounted within the perforated tubular member for conveying compost material from the first end of the separator housing to the second end, where the auger conveyor has water discharge spray nozzles mounted for directing water onto the compost material being conveyed by the auger conveyor to wash microorganisms from the compost material; source of water in communication with the discharge spray nozzles on the auger conveyor; and a separator tank positioned below the separator housing and being in fluid communication for receiving the microorganism-laden wash water.
