AB Vickers Yeastlife Extra™
Supplier:
AB Vickers
Description
Yeastlife Extra™ is a powder yeast nutrient based on readily available sources of nitrogen blended with additional amino acids, minerals and vitamins.
High gravity adjunct brewing has introduced two fermentation problems: nutrient deficiency and conditions of high stress for yeast. Yeast generated under these difficult conditions typically show symptoms of reduced vigour, which can be compounded at each regeneration. Problems associated with reduced yeast vigour includes slow or sticking fermentation, off-flavours associated with sulphur containing compounds, slow diacetyl reduction, and autolysis. Yeastlife Extra™ can help to alleviate these issues by providing yeast with essential nutrients.
For pure sugar fermentations with a zinc free nutrient, try AB Vickers Yeastlife O™.
