I am attempting my first mead tomorrow. I have 12 lbs of clover honey, and Lavin EC-1118 yeast. Which I now understand is for a dry type of wine. How can I keep it more on the semi sweet side? Doing a five gallon batch.
Thanks for the help guys. Toned it down to three gallons. Not very happy with my OG. 1.080. Is it ok to add more honey during the primary fermentation?
Or you could switch to D-47 which maxes out at 14%, and has a nice mead profile.
Good luck!
