What is Potassium Sorbate?

Potassium sorbate is a chemical additive. It’s widely used as a preservative in foods, drinks, and personal care products. It is an odorless and tasteless salt synthetically produced from sorbic acid and potassium hydroxide.

You’ll find potassium sorbate on the list of ingredients for many common foods. It’s a popular preservative because it’s effective and doesn’t change the qualities of a product, such as taste, smell, or appearance.

Potassium sorbate prolongs the shelf life of foods by stopping the growth of mold, yeast, and fungi.

Water-soluable

Potassium Sorbate is water-soluable and works at room temperature. This makes it popular for home-use.

DIY preservative

Add Potassium Sorbate to a range of products to prolong their shelf life. Products like: apple cider, baked goods, conned fruits & veggies, cheeses, dried fruit, ice cream, pickles, wine and yoghurt.

Use for wine

If you plan to sweeten your wine after fermentation or if you're making a wine cooler or other low-alcohol beverage with residual sugar, adding potassium sorbate can help prevent the added sugar from fermenting when you bottle the wine.

5.0 out of 5 stars 16oz, not 14oz!

One of the rare times a listing has the weight wrong, but it's in your favor! If you're looking at this listing, comparing it to another product that's a full pound for a few bucks more, this actually is a full pound, so this is definitely the better deal. (Sorry about the writing on the bag, that's just the amount you use -- ½ teaspoon -- in a gallon of wine or mead or whatever else, along with potassium metabisulfite -- one 16th of a teaspoon per gallon.)

5.0 out of 5 stars So much Sorbate!
Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2023
Purchased this to stabilize my mead for backsweetening and it did the job super well! That being said, I totally didn't have any context for JUST. HOW. MUCH. Potassium Sorbate I was about to buy!

It's a good problem to have, having too much of this stuff on hand since I'll just be ready for future batches, but be aware that this is likely about 3-4 CUPS of Potassium Sorbate by volume.

Be careful how much of this you add to anything, because it imparts a terrible bitter flavor. Use the absolute minimum necessary.
