Purpose
Use this calculator to calculate molecular SO2 and HSO3- based on Free SO2 for any pH level
Background
When SO2 is added to must, juice or wine, it exists in either a free or a bound form.
The free form consists of, molecular SO2 (which is the form active that is active against microorganisms), the HSO3- and the SO3-, all of which exist in a pH dependent equilibrium.
Because the percentage of FSO2 that exists as the active molecular form is dependent on the pH, the pH should be mesured prior to SO2.
A decrease of pH prior to SO2 addition will result in increase effectiveness of SO2.
