need 0.66 cu. ft. of CO2 every four hours. If one pound of CO2 makes 8.7 cu. ft. of CO2 need 0.08 lbs. of sugar, every one pound of sugar only makes 1/2 lb. of CO2, so double the amount of sugar needed 0.08 X 2 = 0.16 lbs. of sugar every four hours.
there are six four-hour periods in a 24 hour day, so need is 0.16 x 6 or 0.96 lbs. of sugar a day.
roundoff to one pound of sugar a day,
so 42 lbs. of sugar in six weeks.
or break that down to apple wine 5 lbs of sugar {I use a little more makes a 5 gal batch} or 8-1/2 batches of wine total.
or a batch and 1/2 a week??? for a 6 week period. could leave it in longer but I prefer to go to 2ed ferm. after 1 week. taste better.
thought it would take WAY more then that.

good experiment

got the first fan today whahoo... ordered the light mover.
and just had to tinker with the co2 idea. I know 12 hours and one test is NOT enough data to make a sound conclusion. BUT holly smokes I sure was not expecting ANYTHING like this.

Yes Mr.Blunts its shhhhhhhhhhhhh quiet...
and Mr.Email thanks for the food info... very comprehensive. Printed and read it several times already... as I have told Mr.Blunts it is wonderful to go to you fellers. when you read on the web one is never sure if they really know what the heck they are saying. but here with you fellers dang there is no question. so I shall study hard. take all your suggestions {i can afford that is} and I do hope make you proud. This has been such a joyful learning experience. I promise I will do my best so you never feel you wasted your time in teaching me. thank you all ever so much.

Do you have ANY idea how that flatters me????
I mean I know I was silly with FDD in the tin foil hat contest.. was almost afraid to do it for fear you may think I was just {well a pardon the pun} but a Dumb Bunny..... I am serious about this. as I was collecting the recommended parts I did feel like such a dumb bunny so I figured laugh with me instead of at me.
YOU folks have said NOTHING that dose not make sense. when I have not comprehended have taken the time so I do.
seems so fibula to just say thanks. but for now thats all I can offer. My very humble heart felt thanks.

The other day while tinkering in the basement there came a knock on the door.
The ups man.
Shortly after that. Another knock …. The mailman..
I went back to the basement to tinker more. When ANOTHER
Knock. A wonderful senior couple in need of a little love for they
Had just returned from her brother’s burial. Bringing me food from that sad occasion.
Ok thought I this is outrageous… I have not seen this many folks since when?
No sooner had I returned to the basement and just started to tinker once more then
What it couldn’t possibly be happening… another knock????
There was of all things a Jehovah witness. As this nice dedicated duty filled man
Spoke of gods love. How god sent his only son to die for us. And speaks softly to the soles of those who believe in him. I heard one voice in my head loud and clear.
And the voice said…. “ YOU gotta make yourself a sealed entrance to that garden room you have going on.” The man rambled on I stood there pondering where the door should be. Alas as he was to make his exit he asked, “Do you believe in god’s love?”
I had to be honest. I replied…
“ Oh you have no idea how much I think God watches over me. I gotta say the good lord sure works in mysterious ways don’t he,”
The Jehovah witness set off to continue his good works.
And I set off to find my book “Basic construction techniques for houses and small buildings Simply Explained”
