Default Sorbate is Evil

Joe,

Have you tried sodium benzoate? I gave up on sorbate too, as I didn't
like the taste that was always detectable at necessary levels. The
benzoate is as close to tasteless at 250 ppm as makes no nevermind. I've
used it for a couple of years now on back sweetened whites with no
problems and rave reviews.

Sorbate is evil. It never seems to work out well for me. I don't
want to back sweeten because I don't make the sweets for myself,
others like them. I will come up with an alternative on way or
another that I can afford, I don't want to build a sterile filter for
10 gallons a year.
