Brewers yeast CO2 Gen.

[MikeyP4-20]

Hi! So…..! LOL any cats out there that know much about Co2 gens?….Iv managed to get this far and im not seeing any joy as of yet. Im wondering if Iv even got the right yeast and ratios etc. any help would be appreciated!

Ratio:

2.5 tbsp brewers yeast (for fish feeds and animal feed)
2 gallons warm water
5 cups of sugar

Your home has more co2 from doors opening and closing than that method
Basically you don’t even need it in an unsealed room

Are you seeing any bubbles or have an air lock on your jug to see if it's producing CO2?

Pretty sure that's not for actual brewing but just for feed. Yeast for bread works fine and is cheap.

Still won't do anything unless it's kept in the grow space.

yeah ,I think Iv got the wrong stuff . Iv been seeing a lot of people online saying brewers yeast works better, but they must mean like brewing yeast lol! Oops .I’ll get some proper yeast in then and take another stab at it .

Animal feed Yeast is dead,
you need the stuff from a brew shop or bakers,or Amazon.

Waste of time

Not the same as actual brewing yeast. That is for feeding not actual fermenting which is what releases the CO2.
But...
Try feeding it sugar and see if it takes off.
