Hi,
so i took on the challenge of trying a little mead. never tasted it before never been a big wine person so i am curious about the mead taste. so i have made a simple 1 gallon batch thinking it would be simple and taste good..... I'm struggling, it smells like crap. the problem is i have no clue what it should smell like so i have no clue how to determine if that is normal. or what or if it just needs to sit. or age or whatever needs to happen. i essentially need to know if ive somehow screwed up my batch. it isn't moldy or anything like that. if its bad what in the world did i do wrong it dosnt seem like a very difficult thing to do.
