CALCULATIONS • Determine how much juice is to be fermented (eg. 400 L) (eg. GSF dose 30 g/100 L = 120 g of GSF for 400 L) (20 x weight of yeast = 2000 mL (2 L) for 400 L of water) INSTRUCTIONS FOR REHYDRATION OF YEAST • Add chlorine free water to a bucket. Ensure water is more than 15° C. • Add GO-FERM Sterol FlashTM and mix |
Fermentation Nutrient |
Fermaid ATTM |
2 x 20 g/100 L adds |
First addition at the start of fermentation. Second addition 1/3rd through fermentation. |
Fermaid OTM |
2 x 20 g/100 L adds |
First addition at the start of fermentation. Second addition 1/3rd through fermentation. |
