Handcraft Supplies Campden Tablets for use in winemaking to sanitise fruit must or to preserve wines/ciders. Simply crush and dose as per instructions on label. Approximately 100 tablets in a tamper proof and resealable tub. Contains sodium metabisulphite.

Campden tablets allow the amateur brewer to easily measure small quantities of sodium metabisulfite, so it can be used to protect against wild yeast and bacteria without affecting flavour. Untreated cider must frequently suffers from acetobacter contamination causing vinegar spoilage. Yeasts are resistant to the tablets but the acetobacter are easily killed off, hence treatment is important in cider production.
