Default DIY CO2 Instructions?

"use the minimum necessary to start co2 production at a comfortable level."

Jim, what is your minimum level mixture and what size tank do you have? How
many bottles do you use at once to give a comfortable level? How often are
you checking PH?

Thanks,

controlling the output by restricting the flow isn't a great idea for a
variety of reasons. you're better off adjusting the co2 concentration by

the
efficiency of your diffuser or perhaps the size of your bottle.

btw, adding too much yeast at the start will get production started at a
high level and depending on your brew and yeast type cause a quick fall

off
thereafter. yeast population will grow over time so adding too much at the
start is a bit of a waste. use the minimum necessary to start co2

production
at a comfortable level.

What is the best way to control the output of bubbles on DIY units? Don't
you need to watch your PH levels and adjust bubble flow? How would you do
it with this type of setup?
