Hello,

Just put together a carbonation stone setup with an aquarium pump to oxygenate wort. Any ideas as to duration for different styles of beer?

Thanks for your input.
 
Using a aquarium pump setup it has to run for a minimum of 30 minutes to hit 8ppm. I had one and it just wasn't worth the effort because you can dissolve just as much oxygen by shaking vigorously for 1 minute and then repeating. I know have a oxygen setup. 30 - 60 seconds and your done. You could easily get the adapter at a few different retailers and add the oxygen tank from a local hardware store (I understand that wasn't your question, just sayin).
