The barb is 1\/4” ID. (Note: if you are using an aeration pump, we recommend a “deep water” type for aquariums, as these will have the necessary \u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003ePSI\u003c\/span\u003e to force the air through the stone and into the wort)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSanitizing your\u003cstrong\u003e Diffusion Stone\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo properly prepare your stone for use, we recommend you boil in water for 3-5 minutes. By heating the stone to boiling temperatures you kill all possible contaminants that may be hidden within the stones micro pores. Using a surface sanitizer is not a guarantee from contamination. Boiling also greatly reduces clogging issues by helping to remove sugar residue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf boiling is not an option, we recommend soaking in Star San, which will remove a majority of surface contamination\/bacteria, but will not sanitize the interior of the stone which may or may not be contaminated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that you do not want to touch the stainless stone portion with your hands. The oils on your fingers can actually clog the small pores in the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Homebrewstuff","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":8823475208249,"sku":"RLDSS20","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0080\/1131\/7305\/products\/Diffusion_2381389e-15f9-4ae0-9250-ccf341c55174.gif?v=1530306194","url":"https:\/\/www.homebrewstuff.com\/products\/rldss20","provider":"Home Brew Stuff ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
