I confused. What I've read said I could aerate my wort by shaking the fermenter or by using a stone and aquarium pump. but my brew store said I need oxygen.
I bought an oxygen fitting hose and disperson stone from him but the O2 bottles at the local home supply store are $8 for non returnable bottles. This seem like are really expensive way to go. And I'm not sure how long to do it. Is there an inexpensive way do measure the Disolved Oxygen?
And a DO level I need to shoot for?
Is a larger refillable bottle a better alternative?
and do I really need to be doing this unless I have a high gravity wort?
