Hi all, been awhile since ive been on here!!
I have a question on my 3month old mead ferment! Its been sitting in a plastic water jug now and been fermenting very slowly, ive gotten it down to 1.010 now I really want to get it out of the plastic jug since their not very good for anyone. I racked into a 3 gal carboy, and I have a half a gal left over.
Should I try to bottle this left-over bits ? I shook it up and the gas inside is incredible!! I do have campden tablets, im just debating whether or not the yeast will pick up fermentation again and blow my bottles. I use beer bottles with caps.
I should mention its very clear, after sitting for so long the EC-1118 really clears quick and compacts good, so there shouldnt be too much yeast floating around.
