I am so pissed off.
I put my mead together on Sunday (6/1). 18 pounds of clover honey, spring water up to 5 gallons, yeast nutrient (followed directions, 1 tsp/1gallon must), and Wyeast Sweet Mead yeast. The smack pack was hit late friday night and was on the verge of bursting by pitching time. I also oxygenated the must with pure O2 through a carb stone.
On Tuesday, I opened the bucket and took a gravity. 1.138, same as Sunday. i stirred it, added a few more teaspoons of nutrient. put a different lid on the bucket in case it was a seal issue. Anything I could think of.
Last night (6/5), took another hydrometer reading. Same gravity. No action. The bucket has been at 72 degrees ever since Sunday.
Plese help me, as I am ready to Hulk out.....
