mga sir, my c02 bottle (the one with yeast) kay walay foam and bubbles but kusog kaayo ang pag transfer ug buwa sa pikas bottle (the one with water). ngano mani siya? should i add some yeast aron maka form ug foam and bubbles?

ok nana yaw na hilabta. if bubbles are present sunod kusog man kaha ang transfer the mixture is working. the foam is just one of the signs that the yeast is thriving eating up the sugar and releasing co2 in return. also if you can manage to get a "check valve" i really dont know whats the correct term for it. basta one way valve ra na it goes in on one end and out of another this will prevent back flow and help maintain opitimal pressure.

note: the more yeast you put the faster the production of bubbles but will lessen the effectivity of the mixture. if a normal mixture would last for 2 weeks, by adding more yeast it would only last for about a week or so before the sugar turns to alcohol and the yeast will soon die out.

tymsa, bag-o ni nimu nga mixtures? pila na ka oras?

keep in mind that ang gidaghanon sa yeast is directly proportional to the longevity of the mixture. the more yeast, dali ra mahurot ang sugar then wala na dayon CO2.

Approx pila ka days aron manngawas na ang c02 sa diffuser? 1 hr or 2 days?

kato ako mga 12 hours to a day. be patient lng. just make sure to seal the holes well and let the epoxy set mga 2 days to be sure. ayaw lng gyud hilabti
