NOVELTY - The apparatus comprises a single chamber elongated container (100) having a closed end and an opposite open end, a blind flange releasably coupled to the open end, an outlet, an inlet disposed in the closed end placed in fluid communication with an external pressurized water source, a generally cylindrical screen disposed between the inlet and outlet, an elongated manifold extending upwardly through the container from the container closed end to an insert abutting the blind flange, a screen having an inner surface defining a vortex chamber, and spray nozzles mount on the manifold.    USE - The apparatus is useful for producing compost tea.    ADVANTAGE - The portable apparatus is capable of easily, efficiently, and economically producing the compost tea with high quality, increased compost material and less labor intensive, and is easy to use in an environmentally friendly manner.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The apparatus comprises a single chamber elongated container (100) having a closed end and an opposite open end, a blind flange releasably coupled to the open end, an outlet, an inlet disposed in the closed end placed in fluid communication with an external pressurized water source, a generally cylindrical screen disposed between the inlet and outlet, an elongated manifold extending upwardly through the container from the container closed end to an insert abutting the blind flange, a screen having an inner surface defining a vortex chamber, and spray nozzles mount on the manifold positioned to spray pressurized water away from the manifold toward compost retained within the vortex chamber. The screen has a cross-sectional area less than the container cross-sectional area, and is spaced apart from a container wall defining a circumferential gap present in communication with the outlet. The manifold extends outwardly into the vortex chamber from a manifold inlet receiving pressurized water from the inlet.
