kellyc Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 has anyone ever heard of using potassium sorbate as a preservative in b&b? i got a sample of it with my last order at the chemistrystore, and it says food grade. ive been looking on google and all i can really find is it is a mold prohibitor. it looks almost like lemon grass? kellyc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 That's about all there is to it. It's a mold inhibitor. Has to be dissolved in water before using it (if memory serves). It's used a lot in breads and baked goods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
