Fermaid K

Fermentation Nutrient - YAN source for use in low YAN fermentations

FERMAID K™ is a complex yeast nutrient to assist with fermentation security, especially in low YAN situations.

• This reliable nutrient provides many essential key elements required by the yeast for growth and reproduction
• Best used at 1/3 sugar depletion if YAN needs cannot be met using FERMAID O™ or one of the STIMULA nutrients

Frequently used in: juices and musts with low starting YAN
When to add: 1/3 sugar depletion
Provides: YAN as a blend of organic nitrogen (amino acids) and inorganic nitrogen (ammonia)

Note: FERMAID K is a proprietary blend of ingredients. Some of the materials in FERMAID K are listed by the TTB as acceptable in good commercial winemaking practice in 27 CFR 24.250 and some are listed in 27 CFR 24.246. For more information, please visit TTB.gov.

Recommended Dosage: 25-50 g/hL (2-4 lb/1000 gal)

• Measurable YAN at 25 g/hL dose: 25 ppm
• YAN equivalents at 25 g/hL dose: 25 ppm

Usage: Suspend FERMAID K in water and mix well before adding, especially during fermentation to avoid CO2 release and overflowing of vessel.
Storage: Dated expiration. Store in a cool and dry environment at 18°C (65°F). Once opened, keep tightly sealed and dry.
