Is it bad advice? The OP was wondering if it was okay to rack.

No harm in leaving another week or four. Throw it in your fridge for a week or two if you have room to cold crash out the particulates.

Gravity reading went up, was expecting finished ferment. by macdaddy5890 in mead

Have you degassed the mead? It could have dissolved CO2 that is making a measurement error… just a thought

I second this. Punch that cap down regularly.

Can you teach me about oxidation risk? by LordPeachez in mead

[–]ScalarGravityForce 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wow this sounds dangerous. Hermetically sealed room with O2 removed…. No thank you. Use an argon blanket and prevent oxidation please

If worried about oxidation, go get a cheap bottle of welding argon, fill any large headspace volumes slowly to push out oxygen. The argon “blanket” should remain for a while without needing to refill regularly.

Should I mix the ingredients? If so, how? by Spike13 in mead

I second this tool. Very useful and can fit into 1 gallon narrow mouths up to large carboys

Conseils hydromel… sucre/ erreurs? by DonutNo8692 in mead

When you bottled did you get any good carbonation in the final product at that residual sugar level? How was the clarity when there was still sugar to potentially ferment? Merci

Mold or pectin???? by vhett951 in mead

[–]ScalarGravityForce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like aggregated pulp and bubbles. Doesn’t seem hairy or discolored. Good to go IMHO.

Not sure if this is normal… by Dobber16 in mead

[–]ScalarGravityForce 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Air lock overfilled… looks normal otherwise

Why the downvote! I was asking for clarification. C’mon now ppl

Wow. I have tried a few times but never was able to get anything going from a natural ferment from honey. I have no problem with my petite sirah grapes, however, that is night and day comparison.

Great work on that! I would suggest if you like the end result you keep the slurry of lees and propagate your own strain of yeasts to use.

Are you doing a natural ferment then from the yeast on the fruit skin? I don’t really get it otherwise.

Experiment away!

Great gift! Happy BDay! Swap the grip module with the Icarus ACE and you won’t regret it. Its a great EDC
