The amount of sorbate you use is generally based on a function of pH and alcohol level.

Using the search tool I found these links:

Oskaar,
How long do sorbates and sulfites stay good in their bottles in the cupboard?
And for that matter how long do you think DAP keeps?
 
I keep my stuff for a year then order more. I don't use them very often, but like to have them on hand in case I have a situation where I want to use them.

Cheers,

Oskaar
