Hey guys! Anyone have an idea how to do this? Im plannin to do this since its cheaper than using yeast.

Any comments?
Baking soda+vinegar
 
Think Baking soda and vinegar (citric acid would be better) only builds Co2 up in a very short space of time and then the reaction is spent, I'd imagine you'll need to devise some form of drip method to get any prolonged activity from this system or some form of storage a balloon perhaps, My yeast Co2 system cost when expenses of ingredients were broken down came to something like 12-15p a week and if my phone converter is correct thats about 10 pesos a week

Thanks. I think that would be 500 pesos a week
 
Not used them but know the principle. Yeast has the advantage of being able to transfer the yeast from batch to batch, making on costs less (you're just providing the sugar). Daily dosing was the only system I've seen anyone claim to have any success with.
 
So then, I'll be the first to try it then? Great!
