I started a 3 gallon batch of a cherry cyser two months ago. I added 48 oz of tart cherry juice, 5 lbs of wildflower honey, and all the stagger nutrients. I used EC-1118.
I have hit my numbers, stunned the yeast, stabalized, and I backsweetened today. My problem is that the cherry flavor did not come through so I added an additional 32 oz of tart cherry juice. Has anyone added this much juice this late in a mead? I am going to cold crash tomorrow and I'll probably hit with sparkloid in two months.
Thoughts?
