Thanks buddy & good morning to ya.
occg.hydro said:The aquarium reactor isn't needed, skip that part. It adds cow to the water in a fish tank, it helps mix the co2 with the water more efficiently so there's no point. the clear tubing has worked fine for me so far. I guess it breaks down over time so probably best to replace it every few months. I haven't had any problems though.
yup, that'll do it. Make sure to drill the holes slightly smaller than the diameter of the tubing so that you get a good seal. To get the tubing through cut the tip of it diagonally, like the bottom of a rose stem. It'll make it easier to get it through the hole.KGB30 said:Thanks friend...

KGB30 said:How much on the mixture of Yeast & water?
occg.hydro said:I use 2 cups of sugar, 1tsp of yeast and then I fill the bottle up 3/4 of the way with water. I use a meat thermometer to get the tap water to 108 degrees so that the yeast activates properly. After you put the water in make sure to shake it up really well so that everything is mixed thoroughly and the sugar is as dissolved as possible. It'll take a little while for the bubbles to start going (within 1/2 hour with quick activating yeast, 1-2 hours with regular yeast from what I've found) but that's about all it takes. The more sugar you put in the longer it will last, the more yeast you put in the more bubbles it makes. You can adjust the mix to your liking. I've found that 2 cups sugar to 1 tsp yeast works really well and lasts about 7-8 days.
