Hi,
Newbie brewer and new to the forum.
I've been doing alot of reading about oxygenation and have a question. Seems like the purpose of oxygenation is to encourage yeast production and is not needed, nor wanted, for fermentation. Making a starter with a stir plate is the most effective method for yeast production. When this starter is added to the wort how important is oxygenation at that point? Do you still want to get the wort to the 10ppm as stated by Wyeast?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
Roger
