What if one aims to use it at a later time, I shall explain my reasoning in short I currently have a mead that I started with a malta goya starter and a I also added some malta goya in the mixture I used to add nutrients citrus and ginger notes which I was boiling the whole time and using to rinse the bottles of honey after I'd poured the majority of the honey into the carboy this was to add nutrients and a very small amount of flavor, my plan is when I rack thesis mead to turn it into something near braggot I am already going to add a frozen mixture I have made of lemon juice kumquat a little basil and some additional honey and some frozen dark sweet cherries these two all together will only be enough to replace what is left as dregs in my primary , I am thinking I'd like to brew up a wort boil it down a good bit freeze it until the transfer time and thaw it and the other two parts that I'm going to be adding in some boiling water which I would of course add to my secondary moments prior to beginning the transfer of the mead on top this mix like literally it'd be the amount of a starter I may go up to two gallons of it including the fruits and all and put some of the mead into a separate smaller secondary because I figure my mead should be quite nice tasting anyways with some age but I am thinking turn this into a citrus cherry braggot which sounds very nice , so would I be a lot better off making this small batch of wort up fresh right before I start the transfer or can I go ahead and brew the wort freeze it and just heat it up again ( I figure since it won't be the primary constituent it probably wouldn't hurt for me to boil it down to a high gravity then add water and boil it again to thaw and mix it to a lower gravity for this secondary addition ,
