So I made a light lemon mead from a recipe on here. I used lavin d47 as the recipe called for
So after 2 weeks of airlock activity I took hydrometer readings, it was at about 4%
A few days later, I went out of town for the holidays. I turned the heat off, thinking the residual heat from the other apartment wouldn't let the temp get too low. I came back a few days later, and the temp was down to 52*!
I turned the heat back on, the temp went back up to mid 60's but no airlock activity for days
Should I put more yeast in? Do I need to wait longer? Did I ruin this batch?
Thanks guys
