Fixin' to start doing full boil batches and been reading into the importance of getting 02 in to the wort prior to pitching. Got an idea. After the boil is over, or after chilling or at some point (not sure exactly when at this point as it is an idea), connect your air compressor hose right on to the barb end of the spigot on the keggle. Build up pressure and then slowly crack open the shut off valve and let the air pressure push air back up through the drain pipe into the wort. I mean, it isn't pure 02 and more or less the easier equivalent of using a fish tank air pump, but would that work??? Maybe the bubbles won't be fine enough.
