Got it, thanks. I thought about the oxygen in the elbow after the fact as I decided to order the stuff to rouse after I had brewed this particular batch. I also thought if I did not get all the oxygen out of the elbow, how much of the little bit that may be left would actually have time to dissolve into the beer? Wouldn't it likely bubble to surface and be pushed out the top as I pull the prv, and not have a chance to dissolve into the liquid with the co2 forcing it out?
Perhaps, guess it depends partly on how cold the beer is and lots of physics stuff I forgot long ago. I'm thinking try your planned bleed/purge. Then, making sure you have some headspace CO2 pressure, hook up a gas connector to your post and crack open the butterfly. If you are lucky there might not be a solid immobile hop plug and you will get some beer that will flow in and push out the semi-purged air. If nothing moves, close the butterfly, redo your partial purge, and hope for the best. Be quick about getting rid of the first bubbles that come up.
