Lallemand Yeast Nutrient – Servomyces – 12 g
Yeast nutrient for stronger fermentation and cleaner beer
Lallemand Servomyces is a yeast-based nutrient designed to support healthier fermentations by delivering bioavailable zinc to your yeast. Zinc is an important trace element for yeast metabolism, and Servomyces can help improve fermentation reliability, yeast vitality, and overall beer quality – especially when brewing higher gravity beers, using high-adjunct recipes, or repitching yeast across multiple generations.
Taste and Character
- Cleaner fermentation profile: Helps yeast stay healthy, reducing stress that can lead to harsh or solvent-like notes.
- More consistent outcomes: Supports repeatable attenuation and fermentation timelines batch to batch.
Where It Shines
- High gravity ales and lagers
- Recipes with significant sugar or adjunct additions (lower natural nutrient content)
- Very light grists where yeast nutrient availability can be limited
- Yeast harvesting and repitching workflows where vitality matters
- Any batch where you want to reduce the odds of sluggish or stuck fermentation
Role in the Brewhouse
- Zinc support for yeast metabolism: Provides a form of zinc yeast can readily use, supporting healthy growth and fermentation activity.
- Improves fermentation reliability: Can help yeast reach terminal gravity more consistently in challenging conditions.
- Supports yeast health over time: Helpful for repitching, where consistent vitality can be difficult to maintain.
Brewer’s Guidance
- When to add: Add late in the boil so it is sanitized before fermentation. A common practice is adding it with about 10 minutes left in the boil.
- How to use: Measure the recommended amount and add directly to the kettle. Stir to disperse.
- Dosage approach: Follow the product directions and scale by batch size. Use measured, repeatable additions rather than guessing.
- Do not overdo it: More nutrient is not always better. Use the recommended dose to avoid unintended effects.
- Pair with fundamentals: Best results come from healthy pitch rates, oxygenation when appropriate, and steady fermentation temperature control.
