    Will a good filter remove the chloramine as well as the chlorine. I usually use distilled but it gets spendy

    The only water filters you want to use for chloramines and chlorines would be Catalytic carbon, you can use any acid to remove chlorine from water but citric and tartaric are best.

    I've been breeding worms ( well they breed themselves !!) for about a year now... am always too worried about not kinowing how dry they can handle... so I don't dry my castings at all , but am devising ways to make harvesting easier... but I am not a commercial breeder ( yet ) so can take a little time. But I appreciate this video a lot, it will help me , teach me more. Thank you .

    Thank you for the information. I like that screen. I'm new I just moved my bin into the pole barn for the winter. I wrapped it with some Styrofoam best I could hoping it won't freeze here in the Midwest it can get really cold sometimes. My bin is too wet so I put some new bedding to dry it up. A few weeks later it's just as wet or wetter? Seems it's from condensation literally dripping from the lid and sides of the bin. What can I do? I drilled holes all the way around it along the top but maybe too small? They were like 3/8"? I'm thinking of removing the lid and put a screen over the top. But cold below freezing temps coming this weekend. I haven't seen anyone talk about the bin creating so much moister out of thin air? What would be a better absorbent bedding option? Peat moss better than card board? This is a blast but the last thing I want to do is kill the worms

    All of the large cities in the US are now treating their water with chloramine. This is different than chlorine and is much longer lasting. It can only be removed using KDF-85 technology or ascorbic acid/vitamin C powder. 1/8 teaspoon of powder is more than enough to treat five gallons of municipal water. It takes less than a minute if agitated vigorously. High-capacity KDF-85 filter such as Camco or Boogie Blue are about 70% effective when new. These cost about $60. Filters in the $20-$30 range are not effective at all.

    Great ideas. Most city water supplies use chloramine (a chlorine substitute) to chlorinate water (check your municipal water report to confirm). Aerating will not reduce chloramine, however, a scant 1/8 teaspoon of common Ascorbic Acid (powdered Vitamin C from amazon, health food store or pharmacy) added to 5 gallons of city tap water will virtually eliminate chloramine and chlorine. It will also slightly reduce the pH (YMMV). Happy worming

    I'm so happy for having found this video. I was thinking about this for my off-grid home, and I was wondering how could you separate worms from the compost. You're the first one that did this carefully, without being brutally harsh with the poor animals. The system is efficient, easy, and respectful. Thank you so much! I was also wondering... would it be okay to let some of those worms in my garden now and then when using the compost?
