Can K-Meta be added to the bottling bucket in order to prevent oxidation of bottled beer? My last IPA effort was strongly impacted by oxidation, and the bottled beer noticeably browned. I make batches that yield right around 6.5 gallons overall in the bottles, and I was thinking along the lines of adding 0.45 grams of potassium metabisulfite powder to the bottling vessel. Are there any potential downsides to trying this, such as safety/health concerns, or killing off the yeast before they condition the beer?
