CO2 recipes
I only use one or maybe one and a quarter cups of sugar. I have two bottles
hooked up to my canister filter and I change one every other week and I find that one cup of sugar is just enough to run a bottle for two weeks. kush "You can't have everything - where would you put it?"

Recipe is pretty basic, and doesn't really deviate much from that. 2 cups sugar. 1/4 tsp bakers yeast. pinch baking soda. water (warm, not hot) See : http://www.nfis.com/~hartland/aqua/co2.htm "Mike K" wrote in message ... : Can you guys share your co2 recipes?

"...and I change one every other week..."
Correction: I change one every week. Therefore, each bottle is changed every other week. There, that's clear as mud. Always happy to participate. kush kush wrote in message ...

CO2 recipes
My mix ripped off previous posts from others
1 cup sugar ~6.5 cups water 40C (~104F?) 2litres 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda (PH to 7.4) 2 drops water conditioner(Chlorine/chloramine remover) 1/3 teaspoon lalvin EC1118 yeast(champagne/wine yeast yeah baby) 1 bubble/3-4 secs after 4 hours lasts 5 weeks before slowing down. Does anyone know what the alcohol concentrations would be using just 1 cup of sugar. Would adding more initially produce a longer lasting mix or just increase bubble rate?
