has anyone brewed the antipodal mead recipe from papazian's book?
i brewed up a 6 gallon batch on november first. i broke my hydrometer earlier that day (after brewing up a brown ale), so i wasn't able to check og. it is still bubbling up quite a bit, 5 weeks later. i checked gravity earlier today, and it was at 1.31. should i be worried about this? should i do anything now to speed up the fermentation, or should i just let it keep bubbling on its merry way?
the only meads i've brewed before have been based on papazian's barkshack ginger mead, and jao. each of these fermented quickly, which is why i'm a bit nervous now.
any assistance would be appreciated.
cheers,
craig
