I've been reading some older threads on here that talk about aerating a big beer a second time at approximately 12 hours after pitching the yeast. Everything makes sense to me but those threads generally discuss injecting O2. Since I don't have an injection system, I was wondering if it would be okay to use the stainless steel wand/wisk that I normally use after transferring to the fermenter. After 12 hours would the wisk be harmful or insufficient?
The reason I ask is that I'm getting ready to brew a 1.100+ beer. I've made a few in the past and had some attenuation problems. I'm trying to cover my bases and help the yeast out as much as possible.
Here are the threads I was referring to:
