I want to add some fruit juice & maybe lactose to a sour beer that I will be kegging. It is from a solera type barrel that is at least a year old (since last addition). I probably won't drink it fast enough to rely solely on refrigeration to keep fermentation at bay. I've read that people sometimes use wine additives like sulfites and sorbates to help stabilize in this type of application, but can't really find any info on what exactly to use, or how much. I have never made much wine, and didn't ever put any of that stuff in wine I've made. I do believe I have potassium metabisulfite (or something like that) that I used in a holding solution for a barrel. Also have campden tablet if they'll do anything.
Any recommendations in what to use & how much? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
