CO2 Calculator
CO₂ & Spunding Calculator
Precision calculations for carbonation stone correction, headspace pressurization, and natural carbonation (spunding)
This tool is intended to assist with brewing calculations. When pressurizing tanks, always confirm and adhere to the vessel's Maximum Allowable Working Pressure (MAWP) and standard safety procedures to prevent structural failure due to overpressurization.

※ approx. 4.90 g/L CO₂
※Vertical distance from stone to liquid surface
※ approx. 3.1 °P
※Resistance pressure before bubbles form (usually 2-5 PSI)

Because carbonation via the headspace has a small gas-liquid contact area, it can take several days to a week to reach equilibrium. Keep the beer temperature as low as possible (0–2°C) and maintain pressure.
