Ok so been brewing beer a couple years now. Though this is my first attempt at making mead so I have no experience to base my observations off of aside from what I've read in here. So I mixed up a batch of JAOM gravity came out to 1.097. It's been in the fermenter for 2.5days and has no visible signs if fermentation. From what I've read everyone else's seems to show signs within hours of pitching and I see no signs at all. I didn't proof my yeast and suppose I should have. My question now is. How much longer should I wait to see if it will kick up to fermentation. Should I go get a new pack of yeast and pitch that. Or should I toss in the 1/2 pack of S04 I have. (Made a one gallon batch.
Any help from those more experienced is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Gil
