does anyone use a system of continuous aeration for thier starters on a stir plate?
i know continuous aeration will increase sterol formation and create healthier yeasts, but the vortex of the stirplate only aerates for so long.... then the co2 expulsion blocks out O2
i have an aquarium pump aeration system, but if i left that in my flask it would just bubble over. and i dont know of an easy timer setup to turn the pump on and of, so here is what im thinking
insert a small valve in between the pump and the hepa filter, restricting the airflow to a point where the flask does not bubble over.
does anyone do this, or something similar? what do yall think? any and all suggestions are welcome
thanks
