First time making a 5 gallon batch of straight honey mead. Started with about 14 pounds of honey.
January 17th - Everything in the primary except yeast. SG 1.110
January 19th - Lalvin ICV-D47 Yeast added
January 29th - SG 1.090
I expected a bigger drop in SG after 10 days. Still bubbling, but slowed down a lot. Should I leave in primary or transfer to secondary glass carboy with airlock? I do have a couple packages of Lalvin 71B-1122 here if you think the D47 is reaching it's capacity...
Ideas? Suggestions?
