I've been using my SS for about a year now and really like it, but had a thought after doing my last batch. I've always done the shake method for aeration, but if I were to do a big beer or just to ensure that I get enough O2 into the wort, could I hook up an aquarium pump to the ball valve to get air in? That way I wouldn't need to worry about whether or not the airstone is sufficiently sanitized. It would also be a method of getting CO2 in (not with the pump of course). I would imagine the hose that comes with the pump is too small of a diameter to fit, buy if I heated it, I might be able to get it on.
