Hi,
So I bottled 3 batches last week and I was wondering if I could get opinions if on the potential for bottle bombs. I didn't use any chemical stabilizers and here's why:
1) 2 batches had gravities at 0.996 or less and had been at these grravities for
weeks.
2) 1 batch is a bochet and had a gravity of 1.002. This gravity has been stable for a month or more. I also brought this mead into a warmer area of the house to see if action started up again (ec1118). Haven't seen action for about a month.
I had to leave a case of wine at my parents in their basement and keep picturing an explosion...eek!
Thanks for any opinions!
