Hello All. Hope you can help.
Made my first batch of mead and it had been sitting in the glass carboy for 3 months. Just took a gravity for bottling and it read out at 1.040. Instructions say the final gravity should be 1.017 or less. I plan on leaving it in the carboy for another 30 days but I'm not sure the gravity will drop that much. Any advice on what I should do moving forward? Thx.
