Review: Wonderful for drying fruit for craft use - I was originally looking for sodium bisulfite because I own a botanical business and sell dried orange and apple slices for craft purposes (not for consumption) With the bisulfite I would have to dry the orange slices for two full days and sometimes more and the apples for one day. I decided to take a chance on this product the sodium metabisulfite and I am so happy I did. My fruit slices dry in half the time and get more dry which is great for re-sale. The orange slices take only 24hrs or less and dry so well and oranges are one of the hardest fruits to dry. The apples also dry in less time and are more dry the with the other stuff. I only soak them for 5 minutes then rinse well and they are all set for the fruit dryers. Must try this stuff, not sure how it would be if you wanted to eat the fruit but for craft purposes it's wonderful. Review: Very reliable product - Keeps my coconuts white…very reliable product. Pay attention to recommended measurements. ## Features - Food grade preservative and antioxidant, sanitizer - Perfect for home brewing and wine making - High quality, fine grain - Always follow the directions provided with the item ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B016DUKX0W | | Brand Name | LD Carlson | | Container Type | Bottle | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (1,082) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00888690360105 | | Included Components | Sodium Metabisulfite | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Weight | 16 ounces | | Manufacturer | LD Carlson | | UPC | 888690360105 | | Unit Count | 16.0 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** LD Carlson - **Item Form:** Powder - **Item Weight:** 16 ounces - **Manufacturer:** LD Carlson - **Package Information:** Bottle ## Images ![Sodium Metabisulfite - 1 Lb. - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71RGDTD3KmL.jpg) ![Sodium Metabisulfite - 1 Lb. - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71j1O8zp3NL.jpg) ![Sodium Metabisulfite - 1 Lb. - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71S4qN-5VQL.jpg) ![Sodium Metabisulfite - 1 Lb. - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71tmKKSP43L.jpg) ![Sodium Metabisulfite - 1 Lb. - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/719ok-ivu6L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Do yo have to rinse after sanitizing with this?** A: No, we don't rinse after using this. **Q: It says two oz per gallon.
