Default Ginger Beer using Crystallized ginger?

Hey, I've been experimenting for a few weeks with ginger beer plant in making ginger beer. I've been making small batches (~2000ml) batches and have been going through a lot of fresh ginger.

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience of using Crystallized Ginger. I've been looking and some places are offering it as a reasonable price, but I'm not sure if the Sulfur Dioxide will prevent fermentation.

Anyone have any experience?

I have used crystallized ginger in several saisons I've brewed with no ill effects. It just isn't as powerful as fresh.
