When adding hops for whirlpool Ive been targeting 120 degrees to help with aroma.
I start a whirlpool immediately after boil and use immersion chiller to get to 120 degrees. I then stop pump on immersion chiller and add my hops to steep for 30 min while whirlpool continues.
I'm starting to worry more on hot side aeration with starting the whirlpool right after boil. Should I just slowly move the IC around in wort vs whirlpool to get to 120? Trying to reduce oxygen, but maybe being paranoid? Any tips people use?
