I'm getting plumbing setup so post boil process will involve 1-whirlpool to gather hops, 2-cool via plate chiller and 3-aerate while flowing through plate chiller. My question is if its okay to aerate while wort is cooling or should it be done after wort has cooled to a reasonable (<80F) temperature? I am concerned with oxidation at higher work temps if I start aerating when cooling process starts.
