I made a semi-sweet mead with a FG of 1.01, maybe a little lower. In the secondary the fermentation had completely stopped, or was at least negligible. So, I decided to bottle.
About two weeks later I noticed sediment at the bottom of my bottles. Afraid that maybe fermentation was still going on I opened a bottle. Air pressure hadn't built up. So, whew there.
The sediment concerns me. Should I dump the bottles back in a carboy and re-rack and re-rack until no sediment falls?
Also, there will be head space in my 6 gallon carboy. Will that be a big concern?
Thanks.
