I have made many batches of beer over the past few years and had great success. Only was was less than drinkable. My father has been making wine for a while now and has had some degree of success also. I have decided to try my hand at this. Around Christmas I made 2 batched of mead. One was peach the other is a mixed berry. Just bottled them and put them away at tasting the berry was good the jury is still out on the peach we will see at Christmas this year. Anyway back on topic. I have a grape wine and a blueberry wine both fermenting beside me right now and they don't seem to be fermenting like the other things I have done. These are simple batches. I mean I took 100% juice add sugar until the Starting gravity was 1.1 and add my yeast. They bubble about every 30 seconds and they bubble hard I have had to refill the air lock many times. There is plenty of head space so nothing is going into the airlock just the gas. Is this a normal thing? If these turn out to be consumable I think I will move on to a recipe a bit more interesting than juice sugar and yeast .
Thanks to all ahead of time. This group has been great with my beer questions. I don't post much but I lurk in the background often.
