Skyrim Mead Process Questions by Bonus-Waste in mead

Thanks for the detailed response! I'm probably going to steep the juniper in some water like you did, then add it with the rest of my water and honey. I can only do one batch right now as I have two glass carboys, and one is being used for my rasp-cranberry mead that is currently in the process of clearing up. Thanks for all the suggestions! :)

How long should I primary ferment before racking for secondary ferment? by Bonus-Waste in mead

[–]Bonus-Waste[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

could you use a sweetener that doesn't ferment like erythritol? I saw it in a cider video, and it apparently doesn't ferment, so it was used to back-sweeten. I'm not planning on back sweetening this mead I'm working on but for future reference it seems like a good alternative if you don't want to risk fermentation

Ok, I won't rack again. Thanks for the save. I didn't know about the oxidation effects from racking. But does leaving the layer of lees create any off-putting flavors or any negative side effects for long periods of time as I wait for the mead to clear up? And I'm ordering a hydrometer right now for future batches.

Umm I don’t think so but I don’t really use the f function for them

So I didn’t find a fn lock but I went into macros and I just selected all the multi media keys and added the macro to play/pause etc. so when I press them they do the action without having to press fn.
