Default old DIY CO2 mix + baking soda = ?

Folks;

I added some yeast and baking soda to a DIY CO2 mix that's been hooked up
for a couple of weeks and losing its steam, er, CO2. Upon adding the baking
soda, I got quite a bit of fizz. Knowing the mix is acidic and remembering
experiments in school with eye-piercing vinegar-and-baking-soda-powered
rockets, I'm guessing the fizz is CO2 and that it's safe to hook up the
reanimated mix immediately - yes? Thanks in advance.

CO2 in a new and old way. Baking soda is sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3). When it is mixed with an acid liquid it releases the gas carbon dioxide (CO2). James M K Plants 0 August 26th 03 04:14 AM
