I recently decided to make a 1 gallon batch of mead. For my mead I am using Saigon cinnamon sticks and Madagascar vanilla beans. The Yeast I’m using is Lalvin EC-1118 (thoughts?). I was planning on leaving it in the primary for about a month, and then racking to secondary for 2ish weeks.
How many cinnamon sticks should I put in the primary? I’m thinking 2 at most, and one split vanilla bean for the secondary?
Also has anyone tried back sweetening with brown sugar?
