I use 1/2 teaspoon or so of CML Nutrient when the situation demands, most notably when using Kveik or Philly Sour yeasts

I've had this too when batch priming, have a pint or a cuppa between siphoning it onto the sugar solution and starting to bottle, it needs a couple of minutes to mix itself.

The easiest way to do this if you don't have spare kit to batch prime is to either to get some sugar sticks like @GhostShip suggested above or some carbonation drops from Wilkos or Boyes and pop one in each bottle before you cap it. Since I normally only bottle 8-10 bottles in a batch and keg...

Cheers, my concern now is that it will be really good and I'll never be able to make it again athumb..

I used Wyeast 1469 for my last batch of bitter in Feb/March, It likes plenty of headspace in the fermentation vessel.

My understanding is that the diacetyl rest takes place after Final Gravity has been reached and needs to be up around 18-20c to allow the yeast to absorb the diacetyl.
