You can also integrate O2 into a CFC.
Not only that, but it would also need a hollow needle to open the stop on the cylinder and allow flow.NoClueBrewMaster said:Machining a block with a male thread would be very expensive... I don't think it would be cost effective... I'm going to my local hardware store to check out what they have...

$35.49 Oxygen regulator (including shipping)
$12.95 2 micron carb stone
In practice it's not a big deal because even the 2 micron size, while not as efficient, will only require a short period of time to oxygenate the wort to optimum levels. And this way I can also use the same stone for aeration if the need arises. The same is true for carbonation--finer is better, but 2 microns will get the job done.FlyGuy said:I hope it is not too late, but you want a 0.5 micron stone when pushing pure O2, not a 2 micron stone (those are for aeration pumps). The 2 micron stone will work with an O2 tank, but it isn't nearly as efficient/effective as the finer stone because the bubbles will be larger and won't diffuse into the wort as well.
