        I just lay one of those cheap-o wall clocks on the floor.
        I pour in w/ the second hand at 12, agitate gently by inversion
        'til 30sec, bash the tank down to dislodge air bubbles, make a 
        / mark on a sheet of paper and wait 'til the second hand reaches
        12 again (this completes 1 min - the slash mark). Two gentle
        inversions again and put the tank down. At the 6, repeat and
         make another slash timing mark ..... & so on until the desired
        time is complete. 

        All very simple w/o need for fancy timing equipment.
