Have you to put the tablet in the wine to me it leaves a tang cheers
I regularly use a Camden tablet in the finished wine before bottling. I’ve not noticed any tang
Still don’t know why it doesn’t come in powder form 😮
It does come in powder form as sodium metabisulphite. However you would use a tiny amount and so a Camden tablets is the perfect amount to use. If we were to tell you to use an eighth of a teaspoon, everybody has a different size teaspoon, and if someone accidentally used a quarter of a tablespoon, Then it wouldn’t do too much good. So a Camden tablet is a prescribed amount of sodium metabisulphate to make it easier for people to get the dosage correct. Hope this helps clarify why it’s in tablet form
