The OxyWand™ - 0.5 Micron

    Description

    Yeast across the World have a new best friend, the OxyWand™. Insert the oxygenation wand into your fermenter and pump in thousands of microscopic oxygen bubbles for 1-2 minutes to improve the health of your yeast. Healthy yeast produce amazing flavors and have the stamina to completely finish fermentation.

    That is not the only reason yeast love the OxyWand™. Yeast hate to compete with bacteria and you hate to drink them. Sintered stainless stones are made of tightly compressed stainless steel powder to create a porous block through which oxygen can flow. This micro maze is also the perfect environment for bacteria to live in after the stone has been used once in wort. That is why we love to boil our stones prior to use. The stone on the OxyWand™ is connected via a 1/4" flare fitting and can easily be removed and cleaned after use and then boiled before your next brew day.

    The assembly is 26" long and will easily reach the bottom of glass carboys, dropped into stainless conicals, Speidel fermenters, etc. The 0.5 micron size stone is designed specifically for use with compressed oxygen tanks. You will want to use 1/4" tubing. See the recommended regulator below to connect to disposable style compressed oxygen cylinders available from your local hardware store.

    The advantage of using compressed oxygen to oxygenate is speed - you can oxygenate your wort in 60 seconds as opposed to 5 minutes with aeration. This .5 micron stone can only be used with compressed oxygen because an aeration pump does not supply enough pressure. If you are looking for an Oxywand to use with aeration pumps please see the 2 micron version.

        Easier

        Much easier to clean ,sanitize and store than the flexible version

        time saver

        Works excellent, much easier to add oxygen to your brew with the wand, much better than rocking a 6 gallon carboy

        It's OK, but very restrictive.

        This item works ok as long as you're connecting it to a large O2 cylinder; it doesn't works well at all when using it with the small O2 cylinders and the screw on regulator. They don't produce enough pressure to really drive the O2 through the stone.

        Good

        Good thing to use to get your stuff the oxygen it needs.

        a useful and well-made device

        this is another well-made MoreBeer product. It solved 2 problems I frequently encountered: detaching the aeration stone so that I can confidently sanitize it, and letting me confidently get the stone to the bottom of the fermentation vessel. When I used a vinyl hose, I was never quite sure if it was at the bottom. A nice plus is that the stainless steel tube holding the stone is easier to clean than a vinyl tube.

        Convenient; easy to sanitize

        This is the 3rd gizmo I've had to oxygenate wort and I like it the best. I had the prior MoreBeer wand, but the head wasn't really designed for easy removal (although you could remove it). I also had an inline oxygenation setup, which would oxygenate the wort after it was pumped through my plate chiller. It worked fine, but was more hassle to set up, clean and use. This improved wand is the best of all worlds, because it's easy to use and also to sanitize. Plus -- versus an inline oxygenation setup -- you can use it in the fermenter after the fermentation has started (like within the first 24 hours for a wort and a little longer than that for mead).I use it for worts with an OG over about 1.065, which is most of what I brew. I'd definitely recommend it for high-gravity worts.

        Small red Bernzomatic oxygen bottles seem to be MIA in most home improvement stores and maybe forever? Any suggestions as to a different source of oxygen?

        MoreBeer!

        if you can’t find those. Go to your local weld shop. You can get larger 5lb or 8lb bottles.

        MoreBeer!

        Hi Skip! I bought a tank on Amazon or you can get one at your local scuba diving supply store. You have to get them certified so they are safe to fill then your off and oxygenating!!!

        MoreBeer!

        Try a welding supply store....

        Do you sell replacement gaskets that go between the stone and the tube flare? Seem to have lost mine during cleaning now O2 escapes from between the flare and the stone no matter how tight it is.

        MoreBeer!

        Not sure why I'm asked to answer this question; I just own one I bought from MB. But in taking mine apart to check what you were talking about the gasket fell out and onto my garage floor. You might try a 3/8" OD O-ring; would seem to fit. Maybe Google "Oxywand manufacturer".

        MoreBeer!

        Don't ask me to help your customers unless you have something to offer in return. My time is precious just like yours.

        MoreBeer!

        Yes we do have these. The part number is KEG602.

        What type tubing is used for this product? If you carry it please provide a link.

        MoreBeer!

        Uses 1/4 inch tubing. Great product. Strongly recommend.

        Do I need to buyanything else? If I get the O2 tank at a hardware store will this connect to it or do I need to buy connectors etc?

        MoreBeer!

        Yes the wand/stone and PBW/Starsan. You want to keep this extremely clean and free of clogs. I soak it in hot PBW overnight and flush and soak in Starsan on brewday.

        MoreBeer!

        This is just the wand. You need the tubing and regulator. If you get the kit that is everything you need. https://www.morebeer.com/products/oxywand-oxygenation-kit-05-micron.html

        MoreBeer!

        You will need an appropriate regulator for your o2 tank and tubing. Some add an inline filter as well.

        MoreBeer!

        You will need to buy the connectors (FE392A) or buy the combined kit FE391 which includes both the wand and the connectors. It is less expensive to buy the combined kit rather than purchasing separately. I upgraded an older kit to a wand so was able to just purchase just the FE392 wand.

        MoreBeer!

        You would still need a regulator for the tank. Most have barbed fittings so you likely wouldn’t need any kind of connectors.

        MoreBeer!

        Yes--you need a regulator for the oxygen bottle and tubing to connect the regulator to the wand. There are many kinds of regulators a typical one is something like this: https://www.morebeer.com/products/oxygen-regulator.html If you want to see other options go here: https://www.morebeer.com/category/wort-oxygenation-aeration.html

        MoreBeer!

        This is just the wand itself. Beyond an O2 tank you'll need a regulator (like the one referenced in the description) and a length of 1/4" tubing to go from the regulator to the wand (hose clamps are probably a good idea but not necessarily required). Hope that helps.

        MoreBeer!

        You will need some sort of regulator between the O2 tank and wand. Also tubing. OxyWand Oxygenation kit has everything but the disposable red O2 bottles (morebeer product FE391)

        MoreBeer!

        I went with an industrial grade O2 tank from a national welding company so I had to purchase a O2 regulator. I'm not sure if you need to purchase a regulator If you buy the throw away hardware O2 tank.
