Is there a difference between liquid Pectic Enzyme and the powder Pectic Enzyme besides one being liquid and one powder?

Not sure but I think so. Ive only used the liquid concentrate as it is
very small and you dont need very much of it. I think I use 1 tsp. per
6 gallons.

The difference is the obvious and also the amounts to use, and the price.

My first purchase was the liquid, and then I read the bottle and it said refrigerate after opening. Daaa! It has been sitting along side the rest of my wine supplies. So, I ended up throwing it away, since I had it for quite some time not knowing if it was good or bad, and not wanting to take the chance. The next purchase was the powder! Maybe I should carry both? That way when a recipe calls for liquid or powderI have it on hand. Gee! My cupboards are bare in the kitchen, but not in the wine room. he! he!

I believe the liquid is a concentrate. I would just use the recommended
dosage on the packet though. I know with the liquid it is 1/4 tsp. per
5 gallons.

I keep my powdered peptic enzyme in the fridge with the yeast...read it had a short shelf life, so...thought refrigeration might help.
