I started a 5 gal batch Old Orchard strawberry/kiwi. I added just less than 5 tbsp yeast nutrient. SG 1.12. Pitched 1 pkg Montrachet on 2/14. Took off right away.

I think the yeast ran out of nutrient.
Reading thru old posts some recommend repitching and some recommend adding nutrient. I am going to LHBS tomorrow. Should I add nutrient or energizer? If so how much as I still have a way to go? Will the existing yeast restart if I do or will I need another packet? Thanks!
