Hello,
I did a sweet mead in a fast fermenter ( my first shot at doing a mead in it). 2.5 months in the fast fermenter. I dumped the bottom canister 3 times ( simulating a racking ) and it looked clear when i bottled it. I stuck it in a box, put it in a corner of the man cave and ignored it for a month. Now it has this on the bottom. Did I need to transfer it to a glass carboy for the final month and then rack it? Can it be saved? Should I dump them all into a carboy and wait another month and rack it again?? any help would be greatly appreciated. I have not chilled and tasted it so I don't know if it went bad, I guess that is the next step if no one has any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
Dennis
