Interessant lesefor om hvorfor vi ikke må / trenger å belufte hovedvørter..
Selv har jeg ikke lest nøye det hele enda men jeg vet at flere hjemmebryggere i Nederland og Belgia hat slutta å belufte med gode resultater. Forutsett at en bruker nok fersk gjær i god form.

Results
The results of this series of tests showed that normal production wort fermentations
could be carried out using yeast treated with olive oil instead of wort aeration. This
procedural change effected ester and fusel oil production, fermentation speed, and
overall flavor perception. Attenuation, pH, and foam were not affected. Ester
production was increased in all tests, although this increase was not deemed to be
out of specification for the brand by the flavor profile analysis panel. The rate of
attenuation in all trials was slower than the control samples but the fermentations
were complete and all final gravities were similar to controls. The overall effect on
oxidation potential in the final product was improved in the tests when compared to
the controls after three weeks warm storage. In the last round of testing the olive oil
test batch was judged by the panel to be significantly less oxidized than the control
after a period of warm storage. This method of treating the yeast with olive oil during
storage instead of aerating the wort did improve the overall flavor stability of the beer
without compromising flavor quality.
