Hi,
I just started using an Oxynator with one of those red disposible O2 tanks from Lowes. I have been turning on the O2 for 15 seconds, then turning it off and waiting for the foam to settle, then turning it on for another 15 seconds for 10 gallons of wort. Does this sound like an adequate amount of time? I have done this with about 10 batches, and on my most recent batch I noticed significantly less bubbles. Is it possible that I am running out of oxygen in the tank ( i have no idea how long it should last) or is possible that my stone is getting clogged? I usually just soak the stone in sanitizer for about 10 min then store in a plastic bag after each use.
Does anyone know if it is possible to use a refillable oxygen source with the Oxynator? Thanks!
