Here is one way I'm stacking functions here at our farm.

I finally got the #biogas system up for this year, and it's starting to bubble away and I'm finally got enough pressure to supply a trickle of gas. I haven't tried to ignite it yet.

This is the Homebiogas 4 anerobic digester.



I've been feeding it cow and pig poop.



The "main" output is biogas, but the other output is this effluent rich in microbes (in the 5 gallon bucket), which goes into the worm bin for production of worms and castings.



I'm hauling the effluent to the worms by hand every couple days, but I set up the anerobic digester purposefully uphill of the worms so eventually I can gravity feed the effluent to the worms automatically.
