Hi all,
I kicked off a batch of Ken Schramm's multiberry melomel last May. It was racked after primary, I added more fruit, and eventually cold crashed and racked one more time. It had finished up at around 1.03 gravity and I put it in the closet to bulk age.
I noticed that bubbles are starting to form on the surface again and the air lock will bubble once every few minutes or so.
It tastes great, the sweetness is right where it needs to be, the tannins still have a while to mellow out, but otherwise, I'm happy with it. I was hoping to bottle it within the next month or so.
Should I just let nature take its course, wait until ferment stops again, should I try adding in an SNA to help speed things along, or should I just stop the ferment with meta and sorbate?
