I got a gallon of horticultural molasses for 9.50 USD with tax. It smells oddly sweet and is the color of rich composted soil. I have a feeling it is great for fortification and microbes. For the price I am satisfied. I guess the kelp tea and the molasses should work partially as a catalyst....I feel like I am missing something in that equation though. :wtf:

I also read that too high of a temperature for brewing molasses kills the essentail organsims. Something like over 85 degrees and it needs to breathe. I figure it is better to buy the pre-mix until I get good at the tea.

I do not use a bubbler for tea brew for now. I got a pitcher at a dollar store and I cup scoop the dry mix into a woman's knee high stocking. I tie a knot and place it in the covered vented pitcher. The tea bag looks like a soft tube. I poor hot water onto it and usually adds up to 32 ounces and makes a bad ass tea. I got a spoon to mix and in about 12 hours it is completely brewed. The bag can be used again but for less water - that's for kelp but pretty sure it works for smaller grains too.
