Won't it help stop the fermentation just in case its not 100% complete to avoid potential bottle bombs? Or am I thinking of something other than k-meta/campden tabs?

I'm almost 3 weeks into my Apfelwein fermentation and it's beginning to clear. I'm going to leave it until the 6 week mark but it's time I start thinking about bottling.

I'm trying this out tonight and I can't wait. I've been wanting to get into brewing and wine making for a while and this seems like a good way to ease into it. I have a couple questions before I start. I'm stopping by the local HBS today and hopefully they have dextrose. If they...
