I would like my mead to stop at 1.010 - 1.015 and be around the 10%. I was planning on using D47 or 71B.
Is it really a matter of starting with a gravity of 1.090, as the MeadMakr calculator tells me?
Won't the yeasts keep going till they stop? Or will the amount of honey used to get the OG be enough to stop it?
In the past all my meads have finished dry and then i have backsweetened them, but that seems like a bit of a work-around.
Thanks
