Hmmm ... maybe? I'm not sure. I know both Wyeast and White Labs (Servomyces) products say to pitch into the boil. I would guess that's since they're not sterile. If you aerated/oxygenated I would say you're safe and wouldn't worry about pitching the nutrient.

Then again, mead makers add nutrient and never boil so, um, dunno :?:

I some times add a little nutrient into my yeast when I use a stir-plate.
