Psychrophiles produce first gas

  Our psychrophilic digestor in the cold room (#1) has started producing flammable biogas today (yay), disproving the hypothesis that you must feed the mud before production starts, but psych in the warm room (#4) has stopped, as has meso in the warm room (#6). Treatments 3 (meso cold) and 5 (mix, warm) are still chugging away.

Mysteriously the meso/psych mix in the cold room (#2) still isn't doing anything -- our last hold-out. We start feeding all digestorsthis week...the little buggers must be hungry... ain't it fun keeping pet bacteria
