Campden, Sorbate and Cloudy Wine
I stabilized a brilliantly clear Strawberry wine (3 gal) with 1.5 tsp
of sorbate and three campden tablets. The wine went cloudy immediately... The same thing happened to the last couple of Apple wines I treated with sorbate and campden tablets. I thought I had a defective chemical so I threw them all out and bought fresh sorbate and campden. the fresh chemicals did exactly the same thing. Does anyone have any idea what causes this? Does anyone use Metabisulfite powder for small quantities of wine? If so, how do you measure it out for 1, 3, 5 and 6 US gallon batches?? Frustrated, A.J. Anchorage Alaska, USA |
