Yeast Nutrient vs. Yeast Energizer:
Yeast Energizer is not the same product as Yeast Nutrient.
Yeast Nutrient is food-grade Urea and Diammonium Phosphate (DAP) and is added prior to yeast pitching. Yeast Nutrient act as a source of nitrogen for the yeast.
While Yeast Energizers are blends of yeast nutrients such as Diammonium Phosphate (DAP), spring cell yeast hulls, vitamins, and magnesium sulfate, they are added after the yeast is pitched in both beer and winemaking. Yeast Energizer is generally used to start stuck fermentations or to speed up slow fermentations.
