I am doing my first mead and after being gone for a weekend I came back to the carboy to notice two half dollar sized mold circles on top of the liquid. I guess it's game over or is this salvageable?
Yeah, there is a bit of extra space. I'll top it up after I rack it. I guess the gravity will be a bit lower but it's better than a wasted batch!
This is interesting. I thought topping-up was to prevent oxidation. I didn't know it involved infection, due to alcohol content and other factors.
