my first batch of a sweet mead has been in the fermentor now for 2 weeks.. the beginning OG was 1.12...it never really vigoriously started to ferment however it did ferment (getting about 18 bubbles per minute)..fermentation has definately slowed down.. we are only getting about 3 bubbles per minute and took a specific gravity. The gravity was only 1.082. I dont have a way to check the ph..
what are some suggestions? should i rack it into a secondary carboy, add some nutrients and aerate it really well...
pretty sure its a slow fermenation because it definately has fermented some..dont want to lose a good batch..
tasted it and its really sweet and has a good flavor but you can definately tell its got a long ways to go..
thanks for any help..
