Potassium sorbate

Keep finding pressed cider w/ label "less than 1/10 of 1% potassium sorbate used for preservation". Is that a no go for cider making?

Lol. Ok, that's funny right there. But yes, that juice is no good for our purposes.

Potassium sorbate & sodium benzoate are NOGO for fermenting cider.

I did one like you are talking about and it fermented out good one of the best ones I did but the second half gallon only fermented from 1070 to 1060 and stopped
