Potassium Sorbate

Jul 10, 2013 1 Replies

I have started a rhubarb wine. I accidentally dumped some Potasium Sorbate Into it at the same time I added the yeast. Since the Potassium Sorbate keeps fermentation from starting is there any eay to get fermentation going?



Thanks for the group.

Make a starter culture of the same yeast in sugar-water, and wait until that's fermenting vigorously -- a couple of days, probably. Add that to your wine, and it MIGHT work.
