Hi everyone. I picked up a small bottle of 02 and an aeriation stone (which will be here as soon as UPS learns how to read a map correctly). I was just wondering when should I aeriate. I know it is after my wort is cooled and mixed in with the rest of my clean water in the primary fermenter, but do I do it before adding my yeast army or after. Also, is about 1.5 minutes long enough to leave the tank on when I do aeriate? Thanks ahead of time. Also, if you guys/ gals have aeriated, do you tend to have a lot more overflow problems (ie very active yeast) when you introduce oxygen. I got a long hose to vent just in case. I heard this can happen.
