Wyeast Energizer in a LC
    #14551402 - 06/02/11 03:29 PM (12 years, 7 months ago)

I have been an avid brewer for many years.....
I have plenty of DME (dried malt extract) for making starters for Trappist Ales....
and I also have Wyeast energizer used to help the fermentation process:

"Wyeast developed this blend of vitamins, nitrogen compounds, minerals, zinc and amino acids to help you ensure that fermentation
starts quickly and ferments completely. Add to your yeast starter or directly to cooled wort before pitching yeast. Results in a reduced lag time,
more consistent attenuation, and better yeast germination. Add 1/8 teaspoon per pint for a yeast starter, or 1/2 teaspoon
per five gallons of wort. Dissolve Wyeast Nutrient in warm water. Add solution to kettle 10-15 minutes prior to end of boil."

(I also know for a fact that there are dead yeast cells in it as well)

If your were to add this to some DME for the
purposes of LC, do you think it would help/accelerate/hinder growth?

Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

From what I understand yeast grows cloudy and white..not something you want happening when your looking for little white clouds of myc. I dont think it would be much benefit, probably a detriment.

Different stains, differnt growth...some can stay in suspension like a hefeweizen yeast or fluctuate
completely out like a British ale yeast....
the yeast nutrient has dead yeast cells....so boiling or heating up with the karo should prevent further growth....

I guess the only way is try....hoping that once the spores germinate that this may be more fuel for them.

yeast is a single celled fungi....might work

The thing is malt extract provides plenty of fuel as it is.

Not that it can hurt to experiment..
