o2 flow meter

[F_R_O_G]

I'm looking for a flow meter to get a consistent amount of o2 in my wort every time. I've seen a few before but I can't find them now. would like it to measure 1L/min

this may do:

This is very similar to what we use in our clinic. As long as you have a standard O2 bottle, you shouldn't have an issue.

standard o2? will a disposable o2 work?

Here are my setups for a normal and disposable tanks.



I usually flow at 1L/min which is at the low end of the scale for these meters.

Beware of medical regulators unless you have a source for refills.

I actually have a full welding shop 5 mins away that happens to service beer supply needs as well.

what have you found to be the best, normal or disposable? would it be worth it to try the disposable then if i like it go to a refillable. (price being the biggest factor)

I use the big tank for batches and the disposable one as a loaner for the less fortunate and for starters. One will last way longer but cost more. I'd say Oxygenation is worth it so just go for it and don't waste the money on a small setup and then have to spend more on a big setup later.

That's the kind I use. If you have a tank with a CGA540 connection (typical for a welding setup), it works quite nicely.

Be aware for the DISS outlet you will need DISS to barbed fittings. It does add a little to the expense, but I actually like it better as they can be easiliy removed with the tubing.

I'm sure there are cheaper ones if you shop around, but like this:

I believe this is correct too (9/16"-18 UNF Right Hand Female):

The pics are nice. Do you have any info on your disposable one (links or brand)? I was thinking about something for my o2.

I think the brand of the disposable tank regulator is Liquid Bread but I'm pretty sure it's the same one that all the brew shops carry.
