If I'm remembering this correctly you can only get to 8ppm with air. And that's good enough for me but I don't make huge beers that often. If I did there would probably be an O2 tank around here.Chemically, that argument doesn't make sense to me. The oxygen in air is no different than pure oxygen, it's just harder to get it dissolved. If the end result, whether you aid air or oxygen, is that you end up with 12ppm of dissolved oxygen, I don't see how it matters how you got there. Maybe the issue is people are overoxygenating with pure o2?

I had heard the same, but I've also heard that 12ppm is optimal and can be achieve with about a minute of pure O2.If I'm remembering this correctly you can only get to 8ppm with air. And that's good enough for me but I don't make huge beers that often. If I did there would probably be an O2 tank around here.
