This is sort of a general question but I put it here in the wild/lambic forum because I'm more focused on beers that are sitting in fermenters for months rather than just a few weeks.
The whole topic of minimizing oxygen exposure has developed into a ridiculous phobia for me. I understand that we shouldn't be keeping our fermenter sealed but how much do we need to worry about oxygen exposure from periodic suck-back caused from temperature fluctuation over months of aging or the occasional sampling?
I'm also curious to hear how some of the wild/sour homebrewers here deal with it when you've got multiple ferments going at a time.
As always, thanks in advance.
