Hey guys,
I started a Mead about a week ago as kind of an experiment and to use up some old honey that was laying around.
I skipped secondary and racked it right into bottles today and it seemed very thick and syrupy almost had a slippery feel to it, As far as ingredients go i've used:
1 gallon of water
1 pound (roughly) of clover honey
1 tsp of Bakers yeast
and about 4 tbsp of white sugar
I was just wondering if this syrupiness/thickness is normal at this stage?
I plan to let it sit for a few months to see if things improve.
Opinons welcome
