If you're right, then perhaps if one already has a dosing pump you can
fiddle with good 'ole peroxide till you get the appropriate dose.  If not,
I can just get the Barly straw, leave it in a tub of water in the sun w/ an
airstone for 2weeks to do our own fermenting!  

Then, we place it in the filter we've got and we'll be all set.  We can
forget about sunlight and all that Jazz.
