I've been brewing beer for about a year but am a new to making hard cider. I followed a simple hard cider recipe I found online that included 2 gallons of apple juice, 3 gallons of apple cider, 2 pounds of brown sugar, and a dry wine yeast. I made a major oversight by not checking the ingredients of the apple cider, and found out that the apple cider contained Potassium Sorbate, which apparently kills fermentation. The apple juice was preservative free, though I'm concerned the potassium sorbate will ruin it.
Is there anyway to save this batch, or is it likely a wash?
