Hi guys!!!
I'm having a bit of a problem with my CO2 setup. A friend of mine had laying around a spare Hagen CO2 system and gave it to me..all the packs were out of date so I decided to use the whole kit but use my own yeast/baking soda mixture.
Now I've read all over the net of people having this thing work for upto three weeks...at best if I can get four days I'm blessed ....I've tried different ratios of yeast/baking powder mix but cannot seem to pass the three day mark, I have even bought a digital thermometer to control the water temperature used for the mix.
My setup is the Hagen fermentation canister > check valve > jar to catch the yeast crap that comes out > straight to a control valve > Hagen's ladder. All has been checked for any air/CO2 leaks and there is none.
Don't know what else can it be...so please HEEEEELLLLPPPP!!!
