Frequently asked questions about the aeration coil
Why should I aerate the wort?
Yeast uses oxygen to multiply at the start of fermentation. Boiled wort contains little oxygen, so aerating before pitching gives the yeast better conditions.
How do I connect the aeration coil?
The aeration coil has a 1/2" NPT thread. You need an adapter or hose barb with 1/2" NPT to connect it to your hose or outlet.
What is the alternative to an aeration coil?
You can also add oxygen with an oxygenation stone and an oxygen regulator.
