So I'm currently brewing a 1 gallon test batch of pomegranate mead. I used 3 pounds of honey, a package of yeast and filled the rest with organic pomegranate juice.
It's been sitting for a month now, and there's a weird brown film on the inside of the bottle, and the top of the liquid has some bubbled that haven't popped in a few days.
There's still a ton of tiny bubbles, so I know the yeast is still feeding, but I was wondering if anyone knew what that brown is? Is it just the coloring and contents of the pomegranate juice degrading with time, or has the batch gone bad? I'll probably leave it just to see what it tastes like when I finish it next month, but I was just wondering if anyone knew what that was...
