While I'm not a mead maker, I'd recommend you check out Moonlight Meadery's Michael Fairbrother episodes on the Session ... seemed like a wealth of information regarding yeast maintenance and heath and quite a bit on nutrients as I recall. Pretty sure he covered rates. He started doing some sponsored spots where he gave out tips, I think 2014 to 2015 and he was on first in early May 2012.

If you don't want to have to suffer though the :asshat: :nutters: for info he was also on Brad Smith's podcast, http://beersmith.com/blog/2012/07/26/mo ... odcast-43/ .
