Hi all - dabbling into mead making. I am following the TOSNA method for my nutrients and had a question on the calculator.
This is a 1 gallon mead @ 1.088 OG.
I have a question.
1. Why does it say 3.8g total nutrient needed? Where does that come from? I see 4 additions of 1g ea of Fermaid O - which is already above 3.8g.
I am confused on the order to add everything. I presume the order of operations is -
Add honey
Add 1.3g go-ferm diluted in water
Add 1g Fermaid-O
Add up and shake water to make 1 gallon
Then pitch yeast
Then add 3 more staggered additions of 1g of Fermaid-O?
If I'm missing anything I'd sure appreciate it. Thanks all.
