I've recently gotten into home beer brewing, and being an engineer, I've wanted to bring more control to the involved processes. Aeration seems to be a crucial control point for a good batch, but there aren't many good ways of controlling it without the use of expensive equipment such as oxygen stones, so I'm very excited to see this!
Would you mind adding some more documentation as to how to use this device properly?
Thank you!
I'm not to brewing myself, but here's how I plan to use it. After cooling the wart, I'll hook up a 3/4" ID transfer tube from the ball valve on my kettle to the aerator. The aerator will hang in the carboy or fermentation bucket and in theory will aerate the wart so the yeast can do it's job effectively. If you don't have a ball valve on your kettle, you can probably add a small section of tube between your funnel and the aerator.

Also, can you explain what material it would be made out of?
Using PVC since that's what I have spools of. Printing with a Replicator.
