I want to thank all of you who told me to let my jet fuel mead and my orange/grapefruit wine sit for a while!!! Both were akin to napalm, and I was going to use them to unclog drains...but due to the mass consumption of homemade wine, by my family, at Thanksgiving, I ran out of my personal stash, and had none ready for my nightly intake of recommended fruit. So I took a peek in those secondaries, in the far back of the "pile", lo and behold, both of them were as clear as clear could be! I thought it was a fluke, so I bottled them, and threw them in the fridge, just in case they were consumable...the next night, WOW!!! The mead still smelled hot, but tasted mellow, and the orange/grapefruit, I had second thoughts about trying to drink that, since it was as bad as my watermelon wine, but it was smooth and had just enough grapefruit to make it delishously tart. Thank you all for the tips and encouragement.
