Vintner’s Harvest Wine Nutrient 100g

Description

Vintner’s Harvest Wine Nutrient 100g provides essential nutrients to support healthy yeast activity during fermentation. It helps promote clean, reliable and complete fermentation, particularly when the must contains limited natural yeast nutrients.

Suitable for wine, fruit wine and mead making, this nutrient blend can also help sluggish fermentations progress towards completion.

Supports Healthy Wine and Mead Fermentation

Yeast needs more than fermentable sugar to perform effectively. A balanced supply of nitrogen, minerals and other nutrients helps yeast remain healthy throughout fermentation.

Vintner’s Harvest Wine Nutrient contains diammonium phosphate (DAP), magnesium sulphate, magnesium carbonate, vitamins and trace minerals. Together, these provide additional nutritional support for active yeast.

Honey can be particularly low in the nutrients required for healthy yeast fermentation. Therefore, Wine Nutrient is a useful addition when making mead.

For a dedicated mead strain, Mangrove Jack’s M05 Mead Yeast 10g is designed for all styles of mead and benefits from suitable yeast nutrition during honey fermentation.

Vintner’s Harvest Wine Nutrient Dosage

Dosage depends on the type of must and the desired fermentation rate.

• Low fruit or concentrate table wines: 24–30g per 23L for rapid fermentation
• Medium to high fruit or concentrate table wines: 12–18g per 23L for slower fermentation
• Pack size: 100g

Always measure the required amount carefully and adjust the dosage to suit the fermentation being prepared.

Helps Reduce Fermentation Problems

Adequate yeast nutrition helps encourage a strong and complete fermentation. As a result, Wine Nutrient can be particularly useful with musts that are naturally low in available nutrients.

It can help reduce the risk of sluggish fermentation and residual sugar caused by poor yeast nutrition. It may also help prevent undesirable ageing-related off-flavours associated with nutrient-deficient fermentation.
