I have a set of different meads that all got stuck around 1 week (maybe a little longer) into the fermentation. They were all going really strong and then all stopped pretty suddenly. I tried adding some more yeast energizer and nutrient but it didn't seem to help. I was on vacation so I'm not totally sure what happened -- maybe the heat killed the yeast?
I'm wondering, if I add more yeast, should I first rack the mead? All of them look completely clear but have a lot of sediment at the bottom. Or should I just add the new yeast (after acclimation) and stir up the lees in the current jug or something.
this is my first go at mead making so i'm sort of playing things by ear.
Thanks
