So this is my first time making acerglyn, I've made simple meads before but thought to try something new. My 1 gallon recipe was
2.5lb clover honey
12oz grade A maple syrup
1 tsp yeast nutrient
1/2 tsp yeast energizer
D-47 yeast
I started it on 12/5/13 and added 12oz more honey with 1/2 tsp yeast nutrient today, on 12/8/13. I was going to add 8oz more maple syrup near the end of fermentation. When I added the honey and nutrient today, it stated fizzing like I added baking soda to vinegar. Would this just be because of trapped CO2 or has something else come into play? This has never happened before with my previous meads.
