Why would bd chromas be useful/appropriate for Ingham-style tea?
I don't think it would be useful. Thank you, Will, for the interesting background.
The need is for a quick, easy way to decide if one has brewed a good tea.
The suggestion was that maybe a paper chromatography method would provide such a method. If someone wants to try, go ahead. I haven't tried a chroma on tea, but my experience on compost matches what Will is saying -- you get a brown humic blob that is difficult to interpret but may tell you something about humic compounds. I don't see how it would tell you anything about bacteria/fungal levels.
