Default Stirring on the fine lees question

Two or three times a week is good, but with a well behaved strain of yeast
plus adequate nutrients I've gotten away with once a week. I don't worry
about aeration during stirring while ML is rolling along; the CO2 gassing
off keeps air purged pretty well.
