I did a search here and did not find any post.
Anyone using this for sulfite?
Anyone using this for sulfite?
EFFERBAKTOL granules are made from BAKTOL P (potassium metabisulfite (E 224)) and potassium bicarbonate (E 501).
Huh, I have never heard of this. It is evidently basically k-meta + baking soda. (Well, the potassium analog of baking soda, anyway). The potassium bicarbonate makes it effervesce. Not sure why that is desirable in this application....

Wouldn't this concoction also raise your pH?
I have read that potassium bicarbonate helps to stabilize pH in water
According to Scott Laboratories the potassium bicarbonate fraction has littler or no effect on PH.
