4" Carbonation Stone - 1/2" x 1.5" Tri Clamp

A small carbonation stone made of 316L sintered stainless steel. The pores are 2.0 microns. The tank connection is 1.5" TC. The gas connection end is ¼” Female NPT threads.

When carbonating a tank place the carbonation stone as low as possible in the tank to get the best results. Small carb stones will take longer to carbonate a tank than a longer carbonation stone will, but it will still get the job done. The carb stones are also used to aerate wort in order to achieve a healthy fermentation. For aeration of wort the carb stone is generally placed in line right after exiting the heat exchanger on the way to the fermenter. When carbonating a tank this small sized carb stone is recommended for small tanks of 3 barrels or less.

Use care when handling and cleaning sintered stainless steel carbonation stones so you don‚'t plug up the pores. Never use a brush to clean a carb stone. Best practice is to immerse in an ultrasonic bath for cleaning.
