Haven't seen it anywhere. But Dave carries the White Labs version.

Re: Wyeast Yeast Nutrient
I'm sure ng would get it in, but I bet Dave can get it too. What do you want it for? Troubles, or fun?
At Alexander Keith's we follow the recipes first developed by the great brewmaster to the absolute letter.

Re: Wyeast Yeast Nutrient
Just thinking I should likely be using it since I'm brewing with 100% RO water. I know you're getting most of what you need from the wort, but zinc is likely low in my wort.mr x wrote:I'm sure ng would get it in, but I bet Dave can get it too. What do you want it for? Troubles, or fun?

Re: Wyeast Yeast Nutrient
White labs yeast nutrient is amino acids. I think it's their other yeast nutrient thing that has the zinc, I think it is called Servomyces.

Correct. It's yeast that has been saturated in zinc or something like that.Celiacbrew wrote:White labs yeast nutrient is amino acids. I think it's their other yeast nutrient thing that has the zinc, I think it is called Servomyces.

Most places I checked don't carry Servomyces. Dave should be able to order it with his next white labs order. Failing that I think one of the online stores carried it when I looked into getting some. I just wanted it for making yeast so I landed on the wyeast/whitelabs yeast nutrient instead. I was worried about adding too much zinc to my starters and the yeast nutrients have considerably less zinc than the Servomyces.

Is it zinc oxide?
