Subject: Re: Stopping Fermentation 

Well, thanks to Alan and Corby for the advice on potassium sorbate. Would 
then one of the sulfites used for purifying the cider prior to fermentation 
be appropriate also for stopping the ferment? Potassium metabisulfite is 
what I've used, at between 35 and 70 ppm, to initially sterilize the apple 
juice. 

Question #2. Does anyone know what strength solution one should use 
potassium sorbate at? And, for a parts-per-million concentration, is that 
by weight, volume, what? Inquiring Minds want to know!
