Are all camden tablets the same size?

(That's water to the rest of us!) Beer is about 95% water, so if you want to discuss water treatment, filtering etc this is the place to do it!

I guess the title explains it!

The ones I bought from Wilkos today are tiny but if they're all the same - fab.

probably get better informed answers in the wine making section but afaik Yes! the whole point of a campden tab is its a measured quantity of sodium met..

if left in a damp environment perhaps moisture absorption could explain older tabs appearing bigger (and that is pure guess work!!)

My answers is yes too... That's the whole idea. A tab is a tab. The only difference my be the manafacturer but they have a "this much in a tab instructions" so with in pharmaceutical/home brew tolerances, yes they are the same otherwise it would have to say on the packaging, ie 1 tab contains x amount of the product.
