Citric Acid 1 lb.
This is a naturally occurring acid found in all citrus fruits such as lemons, oranges, and grapefruits. Used in wine making to increase acidity and ensure a healthy environment for a vigorous fermentation. Wine lacking in the proper amount of acid can taste flat. The addition of citric acid can help bring out more fruit notes and add sharpness where needed.
An acid testing kit is recommended but citric acid can also be added to taste before or after fermentation has taken place.
Also useful for mead making: honey is naturally low in acid, so a small addition helps balance a mead's sweetness. Add to taste, ideally after fermentation.
Other Uses for this Product
Citric acid keeps cut fruit from browning, raises acidity for safe canning, and adds sour flavor to candy, sodas and cheese making. A small jar goes a long way in the kitchen.

Reviews
Excellent safe cleaner.
"I use this as a powerful food-grade cleaner in my kitchen. It will remove tough stains and mineral deposits like nothing else I've tried."
Great stuff
"Great stuff"
Beefs up my K-meta
"I use citric acid to acidify spring water when making a sanitizing solution with K-meta. 2 T citric acid with 3 T K-meta. K-meta reacts faster and better with acidic water."
I haven’t ordered anything in
"I haven’t ordered anything in months"
so far, so good
"The 2 lbs. of citric acid I purchased were shipped and delivered on-time. The product seems okay, I bought it for a new coffee maker that I purchased that recommends descaling every 100 uses. The citric acid marketed for coffee descaling is much more expensive than this product. All I will have to do is figure out how much equals one ounce and I'll be set. Product looks good."
Arrived very quickly
"Great price, came super fast. Just as described. I'm not a canner though, I'm a metal worker and restorer of antique tools. I will be using this citric acid to destroy rust w/o destroying patina. Highly recommended based on price and speed of receiving. Thank you Label Peelers."
Citric Acid - Household
"This was exactly what I ordered, quick delivery, I'm using the product to make some household items with the citric acid and essential oils. Thanks."
Quick Delivery, Great Product
"Exactly what I was looking for! Thank You from Longhorn Barrels!"

"all good"
Cooling system flush
"I must admit that I use citric acid to dissolve calcium deposits in cast iron and aluminum engine cavities. Never buy the "flush product" in the store, always citric acid (MB 000 989 10 25), water flush, dishwashing machine soap cleans with a final flush of steam distilled water and refill using 1:1 MB coolant and steam distilled water. Use to clean out steam kettles. Raw water boat engine cooling system too (Volvo MD2A) so you don't get hot spots that your temp gauge doesn't register."
