Default Benzoate + EC-1118=RIP

Finally got around to trying to get our apple juice from last fall
going. Our presser shorted us a gallon, so added some "all natural"
nothing added cider. After 3 days of no dice, proofing another packet
of yeast, and another 2 days no dice, dug it out of the can and looked.
Even my bifocals had a heck of a time reading it, but sodium benzoate
added was there. Oh well, the local treatment plant had a sweet treat
today.
Apparently even 1 gallon added to 4 home pressed was a killer.


Lesson learned.
