Wyeast Nutrient BlendWyeast Brewers’ Choice Yeast Nutrient is a custom blend of vitamins, minerals, and micronutrients required for yeast cells to carry out an orderly and complete fermenta on from start to fi nish. A wort that is nutrient-defi cient, or which has adequate nutrients but limited bioavailability to the cells, can experience inhibited yeast growth, disrupted or incomplete fermenta ons, inconsistent a enua on rates from batch to batch, and diminished cell viability. Supplemental nutrients are always benefi cial, but especially valuable during yeast propaga on and stressful fermenta on condi ons (e.g, high-adjunct worts, high-gravity fermenta ons).

Contains: Proprietary blend of vitamins, minerals, inorganic nitrogen, organic nitrogen, zinc, phosphates and other trace elements.Dosage rate: 11 grams/ barrel of wortUsage: Dissolve in warm water. Add solu on to ke le 10-15 minutes prior to end of boil.Stability: 1 year, stored in air ght container in cool environmentPackaging: available in 2-, 8-, 20-, 40-, and 50-pound units

Tanal A Tanal A is a 100% natural, medium- to high-molecular weight tannic acid extracted from renewable plant materials specifi cally for the brewing industry. It can be used to enhance yeast and colloidal suspension (permanent haze) in beer. It is ideal for Hefeweizen, Witbier, and other styles where a cloudy appearance is desired.

Dosage rate: 4.5 grams/ barrel of fi nished beer. Rate will depend on amount of protein in fi nished beer. Less will be required for beers containing more protein.Usage: Dissolve in de-aerated water or beer. Add dissolved solu on to condi oning tank prior to or during transfer of beer. Haze produc on will be immediate.

Stability: 1 year, stored in air ght container in cool environmentPackaging: available in 1-, 3-, 10-, 25-, and 50-pound units

 Tanal B Tanal B is a 100% natural, high molecular weight tannic acid extracted from renewable plant materials specifi cally for the brewing industry. Incorpora ng Tanal B into your process will improve the shelf life and enhance the fl avor and colloidal stability of your beer.

The gallotannins in Tanal B react with wort proteins through adsorp on and precipita on - the Tanal B/protein complex is le in the spent grains when Tanal B is added to the mash, or removed in the whirlpool when it is added to the boiler. It is highly eff ec ve at coagula ng and fl occula ng proline and –thiol –containing proteins, but does not interact with foam-posi ve proteins. This in turn inhibits downstream lipid and protein oxida on, improving fl avor stability and shelf life.

Dosage rate: In the mash: 8 grams per barrel of mash liquor. In the boiler: 5 grams per barrel of wort.Usage: Dissolve powder in warm water; add solu on to mash, boil, or both. In the mash: Add solu on to mash water prior to dough-in. In the boiler: Add solu on 0-5 minutes prior to end of boil. Stability: 1 year, stored in an air ght container in a cool environment.Packaging: Available in 1-, 3-, 10-, 25-, and 50-pound units.
