If I am pouring a new batch of wort over an existing yeast cake from a previous batch, do I need to aerate / oxygenate?
I thought that oxygen was needed only to help with yeast reproduction, and not the actual fermentation process... so since I am putting new wort onto what is probably an over-pitching quantity of yeast, why would I need to oxygenate?
Thanks for any replies, I'll be pouring the wort in about 2 hours...
