Hey guys....not to restart an old thread, but this one saved the day for me. I've been trying to create a nice cyser, and thought I had found the most delicious apple cider to do it with. Well, after a few weeks of trying different things, I had only gotten a small bit of fermentation.
Never in a million years would I have thought to look for potassium sorbate. In all the recipes I found, nobody ever mentioned to look out for it. In fact, the cider I used was loaded with it. But now I know, and as we all know, knowing is half the battle.
Anyway, I just wanted to thank everyone on this site for the great info! I'm so glad I found it!
