I oxygenated my Wort before I added my Wyeast 1968 London ESB to my Red Ale. Fermentation took off as usual within 12 Hours. Here I am, 2 Weeks into the Primary, and I WAS going to tranfer into my secondary. Took a Hydro reading, and I am only at 1.020. I started at 1.056. I should at least be at 1.014, if not around 1.010. So, my question is this. Think I could give the Carboy a good 30 second squirt of Oxygen? This Yeast has a Very High Attentuation, and I should have taken a Hydro reading 7 days into the Fermentation, but I didn't. I just gave the carboy a good thorough "Rolling" Shake, but I think that a little oxygen might help those little Yeasties to Finish up the Job. What do you think?
FYI- I am an Oxygen Noob. This is my first batch with Oxygen. Yup, It sure as hell did help out with the Lag time. And No, I did not use a Starter(I Know, I KNOW, BAD ME, BAD ME!!!:cross: ).
