Liquid compost making

I am waiting for a Hozelock Composter which makes liquid compost.
I already make successful compost in two bins but i wanted to produce some organic fertilizer to feed my beds and pots as i water.
I have done some research and have read that banana skins, steeped and diluted is good for roses. I understand that i could also throw weeds into the mixer as a general feed and i also have nettles that i can add. I am glad about the weeds because i tend not to put them in my compost bins in case i spread weed seeds around my garden so i will be pleased to be able to use them in my biomixer.
Has anyone produced a good general liquid fertilizer feed that can be used for flowering plants in particular? Another idea i had is to simply add to the mixer all the stuff that would go into my normal compost and diluted with water.
