I have several batches going in 1 gallon fermenters but I have only one 6 gallon plastic primary glass secondary fermenter pair.
I am a total noob and pour my blended up raspberries directly into the primary. When I transferred to the secondary I managed to siphon out quite a bit of fruit gunk but I simply cant get even close to clearing it all up.
My plan was to age this batch until this summers annual boat trip amongst my friends.
I can't afford another glass at the moment so I was thinking of bottling this mead as soon as it's done fermenting fully and enjoying an ageless murky mead rather than tossing it so i could start again on a big batch for this summer.
I did much research and couldn't find a single post on drinking mead with zero aging.
I'm guessing this is for a good reason.
Though when I sample the mead when I take gravity readings it tastes very good to me! Is there another reason no one drinks right off the ferment?
Will drinking plenty at a time make me sick?
