Aging Mead

[grampska]

I'm working on my first mead and it's been sitting in a bucket for a couple months now. I can't remember for the life of me why I used the bucket instead of a carboy, but that's moot now.

Should I keep it in the bucket for it to continue aging or should I transfer it to a carboy?

Thanks

Transfer it to a carboy and top up to as near the top as you can. You'll help to prevent oxidation.

You'll help to prevent oxidation.

And it's prolly time to get it off the lees anyway.
