Wanting to try my first braggot: I'm planning to do 50%LME, 50% honey - I will not hop it. Was curious if anyone knows if I still need to do nutrient additions, or if the LME will provide enough to successfully carry it through fermentation?
 
I would think that the LME would have enough nutrients to ferment the honey but why take unnecessary chances. Determine how much nutrient you need to add if you were fermenting only the honey and then add half that quantity and be prepared to add half again (a quarter) when the gravity drops to around half of your target final gravity.
