I have a mead going, that I started about two months ago.
Starting gravity was 1.110
Three pounds of wildflower honey for a one gallon batch.
I will be adding 500grams (like 17 1/2 oz) of Linden honey. Hoping that the flavor and aroma of the added honey will shine as the "honey-ness" of the drink.
The mead has stopped fermenting, I assume because there has been no airlock activity for about a month. It is still in the primary fermenter on the trub/lees.
It will be judged and drank in early March 2015.
When should I add the additional honey? (How long before consumption)
Shoul I rack to a new carboy first?
