after 2-3 rounds of success with DIY CO2 - i'm having some trouble now...
for some reason, i'm unable to produce any CO2 despite doing (what i thought) the same thing i did previously...
1) wash container with tap water
2) boil a pot of water
3) dissolve sugar in pot
4) pour sugar solution into container
5) wait for container to cool down
6) activate some yeast
7) pour the yeast into container
wait for CO2 bubbles to emerge
what could go wrong?
- i read that yeast will not survive if there is bacteria/germs - so perhaps i have to sterilize the container with hot water after step #1?
- is the temperature at step #5 important? must be warm during step #7?
