As you can see from the tutorial, it is better to weigh out the sulphite.....

Beginners thread, build your skills over a series of wines, a step by step guide, to better winemaking

however, if you arent too bothered about accuracy then a level tsp is around 5 grams, so add that to 50ml water and you are close.....

1.6 ounces of sulphite in 1lb of water

I think a teaspoon of water is 5g, powder is a bit less, granulated sugar for example is 4g.

Is that an Imperial teaspoon, a US teaspoon, or one you found in grannies drawers?
