Howdy All,
This is my first attempt at making mead. 2 weeks ago i made 2 batches. Both in 5 litre glass bottles. Both had 1.4kg of honey and one had oranges and raisins and the other had preservative free canned cherries.
the orange one is still happily bubbling away and going fine but the cherry has stopped.
I put some wine nutrient in the cherry one about a week ago as it was noticeable slowing at bubbling then the orange one.
there is a layer of crud at the bottom of the jar. i dont know if that means anything or not.
please help. Is my mead dead and should i toss it out and try again? or is there something i can do to fix it and savage it?
thanks in advance
