Yeast nutrients

Post by Rambo Nuggets »

I purchased 100g of Brewcraft yeast nutrient salts to add to a 20ltr sugar wash.

The directions tell me to add 1tsp to every 5lts of wash tho the mother site tells me to add 100g to 20ltr of sugar wash.

Which is the right way to go?
Directions or Experience?
Ummm, I have no idea what I'm doin.....

The nutrients you have are what I use constantly, nuggets. I follow the directions (1tsp/5litres) and stand back. :)
