Oxygenation
Fermentation is the most exciting part of making beer. It is fascinating how yeast cells can contribute to the beer's richness of flavour. In order for the yeast to ferment, it needs dissolved oxygen, and aeration is the process of providing oxygen to the wort. But too much oxygen can cause cardboard-like flavours in the beer and can also decrease the lifespan of the bottled finished product.
Oxygen plays a very important role in making beer and there are many factors that affect the amount of oxygen present in the wort. For instance, the gravity of the beer affects the amount of oxygen requirement. Moreover, different types of brew require different amounts of oxygen for effective fermentation. Having said this, homebrewers who want to avoid problems with oxygenation can use aerators. (more info below)
