Glycerine

[houndeye]

hi.anyone tell me where to buy Glycerine?

Boots or similar. No need to buy cooking glycerine/glycerin/glycerol (these are all the same thing) at those high prices, as this is 100% glycerine

 

[Niman]

the baking aisle of your local supemarket...or boots do/did bigger bottles

Just bought 250ml of food grade for £4.29 from eBay, free delivery (mngproducts), which was kinda handy as it's not something you easily come by here on Skye!
Not sure if the yeast I froze using it is any good though.........fingers crossed.:-?

I prefer 'glycerol'. That's what we called it in the lab. 'Glycerine' makes some people nervous. Get mine from eBay :thumb: It can be sterilised in a pressure cooker, if necessary.

Boots 'value health' Glycerine B.P ((Glycerol) 200 ml seems to be the cheapest deal. 15 ml per gallon of wine is a typical dose. I recently used this amount to convert an 'extra brut' elderflower champagne to plain brut without having to resort to sugar at the final bottling stage.
