Best Defuser?

[mike455555]

what's model/ make of defuser is best for co2? (not to expenicve)

it would be for a yeast system (hopefully pressurized in the future when i can convince my mum and dad )

are the glass ones any good?

Mike, I use glass diffusers and they work fine, and are not too expensive. Be warned, they are very delicate, and I have broken a few over the years. For this reason you might be better with a plastic/ceramic one. You can get small ceramic only ones, that look just like a little white airstone. I would recommend one of those for a DIY set-up as you might not develop enough pressure for the larger glass type(most require 2 bar pressure).

the top one wouldn't work with DIY yeast C02.

The second one would, but it can take an age for the pressure to build up in a glass diffuser. But once it does, you'll be fine with one.

have a look on here for cheaper glasswear from the UK
