So here's my mead and the steps of what I did, new to this and I see I messed up here and there (will learn for next time) but still need advice.
-Original:
6lbs of honey
6lbs of strawberry
1 gallon of water.
.5 tsp of pectic enzymes
OG 1138
-next day (I get that I messed up my OG now)
Learned I should put another gallon of water in so I did
Put 3 grams of wine tannin
Pitched another yeast (hydrated)
.5 tsp of fermaid-o
Stir
-next day
Stir, make sure fruit is wet
-next day
Add .5 tsp of fermaid-o
Stir
-week later
I split mead into 3 one gallon jugs
Adding .5 tsp of malic acid (racking on top)
Took out strawberries
Gravity Reading of 1.032
-Just tasted today(week later)
Tasted sour, gravity reading of 1.004
Kind of at a lost of direction
