Sodium Metabisulphite is a sulphur based compound that is used primarily to sterilise wine and cider making to kill bacteria and to inhibit the growth of most wild yeast.

It can also be used to eliminate both free chlorine and the more stable form, chloramine, from water.

One gram of metabisulphite will impart approximately 60 parts-per-million of sulphur dioxide (SO2) to each litre of wine.

As a guide, to sanitise wine must add 0.2 g of metabisulphite per litre of juice. Pre-dissolve it in a small quantity of water before adding to the must. Allow the must to ventilate in an open container for 24 hours before adding yeast.

It can also be used as a dependable all-round powdered sanitiser suited to almost any brewing or distilling setup. Ideal for those who want a classic sulphite-based sanitising method that is effective, economical, and widely used in home brewing. Helps prevent spoilage by controlling wild yeast and bacteria.

Instructions for use as a sanitiser:

Wash cleaned equipment in a solution of 50 g Sodium Metabisulphite to 4.5 L of warm water. Allow equipment to stand for 30 minutes to dry, then rinse with clean cold water.

Ingredients: Sodium Metabisulphite 100%.

PBW is an alkaline, non-caustic, environmentally and user friendly cleaner. This is the powder product - we also have the liquid and tablet form.

PBW is a buffered alkaline detergent that has been proven to be more than an effective substitute for caustic soda cleaners. Because of its unique formulation of buffers and mild alkalis, it is safe on skin as well as soft metals such as stainless steel, aluminium, and on plastics. PBW uses active oxygen to penetrate carbon or protein soils and is not effected by hard water.

PBW has been formulated as a clean in place (CIP) cleaner and is very effective in removing protein soils found on brew kettles, fermenters, conditioning tanks, filters and all packaging areas. The concentrations to remove these soils are typically in the 1% range. However, due to soil and water conditions this concentration will vary. To help in hard water areas PBW has been formulated with enough chelators to tolerate hard water over 17 grains (approx. 291mg calcium carbonate per litre).

PBW is an excellent choice as a soak cleaner because it does not require excessive heat as do most caustic based cleaners. This product has cleaned brass and copper filters, and industrial aluminium surfaces successfully.

Benefits

- Replaces Caustic Soda cleaners
- Effective at All Temperatures
- Free Rinsing
- Safe on Polycarbonate surfaces
- Safe to handle
- Generates 4 - 5% Oxygen
- Non-hazardous & Non-corrosive
- Excellent hard water tolerance
- Removes protein soil and staining, baked on carbon, and fatty acids

Potassium metabisulphite is used to introduce sulphur dioxide into wine. Small quantities of sulphur dioxide are used to control wine microbes, and sulphur dioxide also reduces wine oxidation. When sulphite is added to wine, it produces about half its weight in SO2 (about one gram of sulphur dioxide is produced when two grams of sulphite are added to the wine).

Here is a link to an excellent article on the use of metabisulphate.

StellarSan Sanitiser 500mL - 100% Food Grade non-rinse sanitiser that can be diluted to 333L with the dual chamber mixing bottle compartment. Simply twist off the small measuring compartments lid, squeeze the bottle and it will start to fill that chamber only.

Even when you're finished sanitising your products in a bucket for example, you can still re-use the sanitiser over and over again. Making it a no brainer for your brewing sanitising needs and the cost to you is greatly reduced. 

The new and improved phosphoric acid blend provides a unique microorganism killing system, unaffected by organic soils and delivering a high foaming formulation with optimum coverage and penetration. It is perfect for sanitising your brewing equipment and surface areas. Not suitable for use on wood, unglazed porcelain or other porous materials. It is also not suitable for use on soft metal such as aluminium, copper or brass.

Please note that foam is okay! Pour your wort directly onto the foam as this is a foaming non-rinse formulation. The formula can be metabolised by the yeast and will act as a nutrient assisting yeast growth. Follow this procedure and it will not impart any off-odours or flavours.

Unlike other harsh chemical sanitisers, StellarSan is non-staining, and stable over a wide range of temperatures.

Phosphoric acid, which is in this formulation, also helps keep your stainless in good condition and will improve the stainless properties. 

Use at a dilution rate of 1.5ml per litre.
