I was wondering whether potassium sorbate by itself is strong enough to prevent fermentation. The reason I ask is that I recently brewed a nut brown that I added toffee torani syrup to. When I found out that the syrup had potassium sorbate in it, I figured I'd just keg it instead of bottling like I planned. This worked fine and it turned out to be very tasty.
I was just wondering whether the sorbate in these syrups is enough to prevent them from being eaten? I'd love to be able to use them to reliably backsweeten, since they come in about every imaginable flavor. I don't think that the yeast ate the sugar in the syrup, but I am not positive.
