Suggestion for how to aerate in plastic Conical Fermenter?

[lorne17]

Hello there,

I have a a FastFerment and whenever i am about to pitch my yeast i need to aerate my wort as you all know. What's the best diy trick to aerate this cumbersome and awkward shaped vessel?! I typical roll it around on the floor. But have to be careful not to knock the ball valve and keep my finger over top hole.

If i make a DIY drill aerator then likely it will scratch the plastic inside.

Any thoughts or ideas?

Thanks,
Lorne

Grab a little o2 bottle with an o2 stone. Cheap n easy

You are (or were) about to pitch yeast, so this doesn't really help you, but I use the aquarium style aeration system and it works great.

Stone & pump / o2 or then transfer the wort via another, small, sanitized vessel that can be closed and shaken easily.
