Yeast Nutrient

[jeskremer]

Dosage
Varies depending on the fruit. Typically 1-2 tsp/gallon.

Purpose
Most wines that are not well-ripened wine grapes do not have sufficient nutrients and trace minerals (especially nitrogen) for effective yeast fermentation.

WARNING: Yeast Nutrients are not Yeast Energizers. Energizers are used for stalled fermentation or blueberry wines and are used very rarely – and then only ¼ tsp/gallon.
