Hi Lloyd -

You asked me to comment on the yogurt-type organisms under full aeration.

If you had only those organisms, they would manage ok in fully aerobic conditions. 

But if they were in competition with true aerobes, the true aerobes will win. 

That's why the Biodynamic approach to obtaining these organisms is needed - you need reduced oxygen in order to develop conditions that allow the lactic acid producing bacteria to grow. 

Hope this helps!
