vinecar baking soda drip CO2

vinecar baking soda drip CO2

for this one you will need a 45 oz butter tub a 2oz shot glass or any 2oz to 4oz cup a peace of cotton string or a peace of yarn

 

[bugman52]

cut the butter dish lid out about half way then tie 3 or 4 knots in the end of your yarn or cotton string

 

[bugman52]

pour 1 to 2 inch of baking soda in your tub put lid back on butter tub sit 2 oz shot glass on top next to the edge then put the knot end of the yarn down in the glass let it hange about 1 inch past the glass bottem and cut

 

[bugman52]

pour vinegar in shot glass the wick [yarn] will probley float to the top but it will sink in a little while it will start to drip in to the baking soda you could tie a small glass or plastic bead on the end of the yarn to sink it

Thank you Bugman, That is a great tutorial on a DIY C02 dispenser.

I tried using yeast and sugar. My booth is not sealed, so my eyes were also CO2 beneficiaries. My eyes didn't care for it at all. lol

If I decide to use extra C02, I'll move the booth to another building!

Wait, what? Did it sting your eyes, or cause an allergy or...?

I see a lot of yeast-based generators on Amazon, people use them to pump CO2 into fish tanks in order to grow plants in the water aka aquaculture. And plenty of comments saying don't even bother, put some baker's yeast in a beverage bottle with some sugar and water.

It does seem like the vinegar->wick->baking soda thing is a lot cleaner, or at least less gross.
