It was about 24C/75F when I pitched but has been 20C/68F past three days. The EC-1118 tolerates 10-30C or 50-86F.
Would it be wise to add another packet of yeast, not dry pitching this time?
I've been brewing beer for a few years so I guess I'm used to the speed of ale yeast but I tried my first batch of mead 6 days ago and the slow fermentation had me worried.
Mixing honey and water I ended up with 23L/6 gallons @ 1.110 OG
I dry pitched a packet of EC-1118 the same time I started...
