I know Brewtan B is a similar product but I'm asking because I have K-meta on hand.
Thanks for all the replies.
I'll try next time, I already kegged Sunday.

Just FYI: they aren’t similar products. BTB is gallotannin based and binds to specific substances and Sulfites are essentially oxygen scavengers.
Thank you sir, maybe I was tryimg to say they could be used for a similar purpose?

No I don’t think so, at least not in the way originally described in the OP.
Understood.
Well I guess I should try it out and maybe put a bug in Marshals ear. Unless there has been an exBEERiment done already.
Thanks Big Monk.

You don’t want to be adding BTB post boil. I mean you certainly could, but at that stage, you should have (read could have alternatively) removed most, if not all, of the compounds it will bind and precipitate. Take care of it upstream. EDIT: This is my opinion. If it’s being advocated by JF as a clarifier, far be it from to poo poo it. Sorry if I was unclear.
As far as adding sulfites, I would tighten up the cold side before adding sulfites to the keg. In reality, you’d be adding sulfites to counteract cold side Oxygen ingress. If after tightening up you feel you need margin, then add the Meta and make sure that you factor in additional K, Na, and SO4 Potential when dosing.
