Vina Yeast Nutrient Salt, 10 sachets of 10 g

Yeast nutrient salt, also called fermentation salt, supplies the yeast with nutrients. According to Vina, enough nutrients support growth and metabolism of the yeast cells: they process added sugar better, reach higher alcohol levels and ferment through briskly even at lower temperatures.

Dissolve the salt in a little water or juice and stir it into the batch before fermentation or during the start phase. For blueberry or lingonberry juice the manufacturer says it is essential.
