I'm about to make a basic mead from the recipe that is stickied at the top of this forum.
I just wanted to ask about the benefits of adding campden tablets to the must. Is this definitely not necessary for mead? What is the common practice if you don't intend on pasteurizing/ boiling the honey? I have a bottle of the tablets laying around, and just wanted to know whether it was worth throwing them in to kill any wild yeast/ unwanted organisms in the must.
Thanks for any answers!
