Well after trying to search and read up on SG's and such- I can't find the answer to my question-
I just started a white grape/peach mead and took a SG of 1.158 and the temp was just 70 f. Is that kinda high? And will it kill off my yeast? Or have I just made peach flavored jet fuel?
one gallon white grape peach mead
3 cans of white grape/peach concentrate(thawed and airated for 24 hours)
2lbs honey clover
1/2tsp. yeast nutrient
1.5 oz raisins
1/2 gallon white grape/peach juice to fill (all but about 1/2 cup used)
ec-1118 yeast used.
The yeast looks like it is forming little colonies now.
But this is my first attempt to check the SG - I have forgotten to on most of my batches, and have so far, only used it to make sure that they have fermented out.
it tasted super sweet and peachy.
