Hey everybody.. This last weekend I did a whole lost of batches.. One was a five gallon American Amber and the other was a five gallon Black IPA.. I also put together 4 different five gallon batches of wine..
Just today I obtained a nice new bottle of oxygen that I am very anxious to use with a 5 micron stone. Fermentation has started of course, but is far from over. I was wondering if there would be any downfalls to giving each of them a short blast of oxygen.. I know if you add oxygen too late, you will get a cardboardish oxygenated flavor. Just don't know where the threshold is between oxygen being helpful or damaging..
Fermentation on the Black IPA is okay.. but I've seen better.. I don't think I sloshed it around enough before I pitched..
