The addition of nutrient supplements to grape juice prior to/during fermentation can now be managed accurately in terms of Yeast Available Nitrogen (YAN). YAN is especially important to determine accurately, as too little available nitrogen can result in sluggish or “stuck” fermentation, and the generation of hydrogen sulphide (H2S)
gas, while too much nitrogen, such as in the form of added diammonium phosphate (DAP), can lead to the formation of the carcinogenic compound ethyl carbamate, especially where starting levels of L-arginine in the juice are high.
