Hello all,
I would greatly appreciate any help or advice.
I was so eager to start making mead, but lacked the funds to properly follow any of the recipes. So, taking the information that it is very forgiving, I created my own(using less honey and more fruit). And two days after combining the must, all the raisins have risen to the top. I read this means it is ready, but it's only been two days; could I have haphazardly come across a super fast recipe?
What do I do now? Let it sit for another 10-12 days? Bottle it now? Add more honey?
There does not seem to be anything wrong with it, there is an odor that is pleasant, not indicating trouble. There is a bit of sediment that has accumilated on the bottom, it is still bubbling.
If I let it sit, will it turn to vinegar?
Please help, thank you
