hey everyone,
Im a few brews deep now, and on my last one i prepared my first starter. My question is regarding yeast nutrients. I know some people add them to old/ out dated yeast or just to boost the rate of cell division in starters. anyways, lets just say i remembered i had some "distiller's nutrient" from a previous project. Its intended for high alcohol mashes with low nutrients, ingredients are: yeast nutrients (ammonium phosphate [dibasic], magnesium sulfate), Micro nutrients, trace vitamins and minerals. Thats all the label says. now the directions start for alcohol levels as low as 8% so i have proper quantities in the direction, but do you think it would be ok to use this stuff in future starters? the brand is brewhaus if that helps at all.
Thanks,
Sam
