hello all,
about two weeks ago i made six 3 liter batches of mead:
two batches of joe's ancient orange mead which is going strong and looking good
four batches of just honey and water, each with 400, 500, 600 and 700 gram natural honey (my own bees) topped off with water. (i didn't have a hydrometer, so i went crazy lol)
now, the 400g batch is looking very pale and white and the fermentation is very slow. i'm worried it's not gonna be tasting good. what is your suggestion? do i need to throw it into secondary with more honey or sugar or maybe spices? should i do the same with the other 3 batches of simple honey-water?
i would appreciate any suggestions u might have.
p.s. i do have a hydrometer right now.
