Diammonium Phosphate Yeast Nutrient (DAP) – 1 lb

Diammonium Phosphate Yeast Nutrient (DAP)

Boost Fermentation Health with DAP. Diammonium Phosphate (DAP) is a trusted yeast nutrient that provides an essential source of nitrogen for healthy and vigorous fermentation. Perfect for wine, mead, cider, or beer, DAP helps prevent sluggish fermentations and off-flavors by giving yeast the nutrients they need to thrive.

Why Use Diammonium Phosphate?

• Nitrogen Support: Supplies Free Amino Nitrogen (FAN) for yeast growth.
• Wine & Mead Fermentations: Essential for musts low in natural nutrients.
• Beer Brewing: Helpful in high-adjunct or sugar-heavy fermentations.
• Prevents Stuck Fermentation: Reduces the risk of stalled yeast activity.

Usage Tips

• Dissolve DAP in a small amount of warm water or must before adding.
• For wine/mead, often used in combination with other yeast nutrients for a balanced profile.
• Avoid overuse; excess nitrogen can stress yeast and affect flavor.

Tasting Impact

While DAP itself does not contribute flavors, it enables a cleaner fermentation by keeping yeast active and reducing the risk of sulfur-like off-aromas caused by nutrient deficiencies.
