    I have daily access to free dry ice. Would dry ice c02 be better then sugar and yeast?

    Both Are ways to produce co2. Do one or the other. No real way to tell, you have to eyeball it basically. Not gonna overkill it. I don't think either will over produce c02.

    seems like it would be hard to create a consistant co2 level with dry ice.

    Ive never used CO2 but I imagine it wouldnt be difficult to create a consistent level. Place the solid CO2 in a paint can with the lid and a few holes around the outside. this should release the CO2 more gradually.

    I was trying to find anyone who has used dry ice for curing. It might be worth a try if you have access to free dry ice.
