FERMAID O 50G

Fermaid O™ is a blend of inactivated yeast fractions rich in organic nitrogen. Fermaid O™ does not contain added ammonia salts (DAP) or micronutrients. The importance of organic nitrogen from yeasts is well known as a highly efficient nutrient source for wine yeasts, especially when compared to inorganic nitrogen from DAP. In addition, Fermaid O™ consistently produces lower heat of fermentation and lower levels of negative sulfur compounds, compared with DAP. With its high content of organic nitrogen, Fermaid O™ can help winemakers achieve steady fermentations, while limiting temperature peaks.

Recommended Dosage:                   

High gravity, pure sugar fermentations (SG >1.083): 2.5 g/L
Standard sugar fermentations (SG 1.040 – 1.083): 1.5 – 2.5 g/L
Standard wort: 0.3 – 0.5 g/L.                                                                                                Add to the kettle at the end of the boil, or dissolve in water prior to dosing in the fermenter.
