So, I just ordered a regulator off of eBay, went through my left over fittings and have most of what I need to make an in line oxygenation set up type doo hickey type dealy to inject oxygen during the transfer from CFC to fermenter using a chugger pump... (just need to get a screw in SS stone)
The question I am wondering about, is if we are only supposed to inject oxygen for a minute, but the transfer takes longer than that, what keeps the wort from going through the stone and up into the 1/4" line when the stone/line is not pressurized? I would think the pump would want to push it up the line some bit..
Do you guys install another valve at the stone to close off the line, or is this not an issue?
