Description
Yeast Vit is a blended yeast nutrient so comprehensive it can be used with even the most nutritionally deficient worts.
Yeast Vit is supplied as a free flowing pale brown to yellow crystalline powder, which is a formulated blend of organic salts, vitamins, amino acids and trace elements along with an approved organic source of nitrogen. Yeast Vit is designed to ensure correction of nutrient deficiencies in wort.
It reduces fermentation time and improves sedimentation.
Benefits
- Improves rate of yeast growth.
- Prevents slow fermentations

Principle
Brewers yeast needs readily used sources of vitamins and trace elements. Deficiencies of such components can cause the following symptoms:
- Long lag phase
- High pH
- Sticking fermentations
- Poor finings
The product can be mixed into the yeast slurry about 30 minutes before pitching into the wort, or alternatively mixed with a small volume of wort and added to the fermenter. It can also be added to the kettle at the end of the boil.
