I decided to try mead and ended up with an OG off the scale. IF the calibration were to continue the same beyond the markings as it does during the markings my OG is around 1.2. I know this is way too high, even if my ec-1118 gets all the way to 18% my mead will still be grossly sweet.
My question is, can I let it ferment for 1-2 months before diluting it or do I need to dilute right away? After 12 hours fermentation had begun. Getting a steady stream of bubbles. My issue is that I am going to be brewing beer soon and need my carboys. If it won't destroy the flavor of the mead I would like to let it sit as is until my beer is done. If it matters I have temp control and am running at 70 F
Thanks,
Pat
