so last night i got a little bored so i was like hell i try to make a mead.
went to the grocery store quick and bought honey and blue berries. threw it all together. with some minor set backs it is now doing its thing in my fermentation closet.
i pitched a nasty bread yeast because it was what i had and planned on doing. however i took my og and well turns out it's around 1.170ish so basically a lot. i've heard bread yeast will poop out early so i was wondering if in a month or so i could repitch with a champagne yeast to get the mead the rest of the way. would that work or is there something else you would recommend?
i would like to get the mead down to about 1.020 i don't want it terribly sweet
