Preserve the freshness and flavor of your home-brewed creations with our Potassium Sorbate, the go-to preservative for brewers who demand the highest quality in their craft. This key ingredient is essential for stabilizing beer, wine, and cider, preventing yeast from further fermentation and ensuring your brew stays just the way you like it.

What is Potassium Sorbate?
Potassium Sorbate is a food-grade preservative widely used in the brewing and winemaking industries to inhibit yeast growth and fermentation. This is crucial for preventing bottle carbonation and ensuring the longevity and stability of your beverages. It's especially useful for sweet wines, ciders, and any brew where residual sugar is desired, keeping the sweetness intact without risking over-fermentation.

Usage and Benefits:

  • Fermentation Control: Effectively halts yeast activity, preventing further fermentation and preserving the desired flavor and alcohol content.
  • Ideal for Sweet Brews: Perfect for maintaining the sweetness in wines, ciders, and fruit beers without additional fermentation.
  • Longevity and Stability: Ensures your brewed beverages maintain their quality and taste over time.

Recommended Dosage:
A typical dosage is approximately 1/2 teaspoon (about 2 grams) per gallon of beverage, added before bottling. It’s crucial to dissolve the potassium sorbate in a small amount of the brew and then mix thoroughly with the entire batch to ensure effective stabilization.

Secure the quality and consistency of your home-brewed beverages with our Potassium Sorbate. Ideal for brewers who want to keep their brews fresh and flavorful for longer. Add this essential preservative to your brewing repertoire and enjoy the perfect brew batch after batch!
