Mead Stabilisation Calculator
Calculate the recommended dosage of potassium metabisulphite and potassium sorbate to stabilise your mead. This is used to prevent renewed fermentation after bottling.
Enter the pH of your mead. The dosage of potassium metabisulphite is pH-dependent.
Recommended Dosage
Potassium Metabisulphite:
This dosage is now tailored to your mead’s pH. It’s designed to provide the optimal level of free sulfur dioxide for antioxidant and antimicrobial protection.
Potassium Sorbate:
This dosage is a general guideline to prevent yeast from reproducing. The amount needed can vary based on the mead’s alcohol by volume (ABV) and pH.
