Yes Paul,  After extensive study of the effects and potential of ACT , I purchased a 50 g brewer for $5,000.  One of the first.  After about 3 weeks of use I decided there had to be a better system.  One that didn't constantly run the 'LIFE' thru the circulating pump that killed part of the objective (life)  each trip thru the pump.  And I wanted to be able to move the brewer without having to have a $ 30,000 fork lift.  And I wanted the system to operate with little noise and on little electric power so it could operate from a 12 volt system  + converter.  I wanted it easy to assemble, move, load, operate and clean.  So yes, I made a system to meet my objectives.  Tests proved it produced better results than my $5,000 model.  My model cost far less than $ 1,000.  
 
Enough people wanted models like it to start making to sell.   The system was enough flexible to allow models with capacity from 1 gallon to 2,000 gallons.   Yes Paul, they are all in use now in 26 countries, on 5 continents.    When operated with good compost and suitable nutrients in the right ratios, at suitable temperatures the brewers produce high quality ACT as proven by hundreds of tests with SFI and many reports of great results on gardens and turf.   Including pastures in Texas, lawns in
Alaska,  vanilla ranches in Costa Rica.     
 
The Vanilla ranch had a welcome reception for ACT.  For Vanilla  spraying is done from horseback.  Using chemicals the poison injury, even death, rate was high from poison spray.  ACT offered better vanilla growing results  and with no illness or injuries from the ACT being sprayed.   ACT is on going there after several years.      
 
ACT from Bob's Brewers is making a difference on many hundreds of farms, world wide.  Just  
AS DOES ACT FROM  MANY OTHER BREWERS MADE BY OTHERS OR BY HOME BUILT MODELS  
 
I have helped many who wanted to build their own - do so.  For little if any charge.   Do I do this business to make money, Paul?   Hardley.   The business operates at a $ loss but with a satisfaction of doing some good for my favorite Planet.     Bob

Robert, I hate to bring this up, but in the interest of full disclosure -
didn't you forget to mention that you're in business to sell compost tea
machines - something called Bob's Brewers? A 500-gallon model specifically?

The outstanding scientific discovery of the twentieth century is not
television, or radio, but rather the complexity of the land organism. Only
those who know the most about it can appreciate how little we know about
it.
