Default potassium metabisulfite / campden tablets measuring confusion!


I have created some software that calculates sulphite additions. You can
choose teaspoons as the measurement unit if you wish.

I have a downloadable version he

And an online version here (requires Java):

Or you can create a personalized sulphite addition table he
http://www.fermsoft.com/sulphtable.php

All are completely free.
