Greetings collective,
I've made a five gallon batch of mead with the addition of blueberries post primary fermentation. In about two more weeks I'll be packaging this up and allowing it to rest for at least six months.
One thing I'd like to try is sweetening up with another dose of honey and then pasteurizing the bottles to kill whatever yeast might still be in there and viable.
I know this is an objective question, but how much more honey would you add to the bottling bucket? Do you think one pound of honey or two?
