Perfectly Balanced Acid Blend for Wine, Cider, and Mead Making

This Acid Blend is a balanced combination of 1/3 Citric, 1/3 Tartaric, and 1/3 Malic acids, specifically formulated to adjust acidity levels in wine, cider, mead, and other fermented beverages. It is designed to enhance flavor profiles, add sharpness, and bring balance to your homemade creations, especially when the natural acid content falls short during fermentation.

How and When to Use Acid Blend

Acid Blend is most commonly added to wines that need a boost in acidity to balance the sweetness, improve fermentation, or add brightness to the final product. It’s best used during the initial stages of wine making or just before bottling if you need to adjust the flavor.

In mead-making, Acid Blend can help counteract the natural sweetness of honey, creating a more balanced beverage. In cider, it adds crispness, enhancing the fruity notes of the apple base. For brewers, Acid Blend can be used sparingly to adjust pH or fine-tune the flavor profile of certain styles of sour beers.

Dosage Guidelines

For wine, mead, or cider, the typical dosage is around 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon per gallon of liquid, depending on the desired level of tartness. Always start small and adjust to taste, as over-acidifying can create an overly sharp or sour profile.
