Servomyces? I have an unopened pack from probably a dozen years ago, plus an opened one. I've used it on both brews since I started back up but have no idea if it's actually doing anything beneficial.

Nope.  I bought it when it first came out and used the capsules and that was it.  Too much money to buy again. I just use Wyeast yeast nutrient these days.

I only just started using nutrient and I'm using wyeast for now.  not sure if I really need it or not.

I kind of agree with that but the wyeast is so cheap I figure why not.

Any harm in me using it? I bought the big, 10 barrel size packages so I have quite a bit left!

As long as the dosing is right for your batch size I see no reason it would be an issue.

Thanks. I don't really measure it to be honest but estimate that I use 1/4 to 1/2 tsp per 5 gallon batch.
