So I finally have my blackberry mead ready to bottle. It tastes delicious thus far. It has been racked off of the berries for about a month now, and was meticulously strained through Cheese cloth and muslin bags and everything has settled out. Despite it is very dark I do notice small clusters still in suspension. I have decided to add sulphite.
Can I add the campden tabs and bentonite at the same time? Or should I wait the 24 hrs after to add the bentonite?
Another gee whiz question for adding the pectic enzyme. I don't feel that this mead requires it, but if I were could I add that at the same time as well? Or should I do each of these steps at different times?
I am somewhat pressed for time as I just returned from a trip and I am leaving again soon but I don't want to fudge this one up with my own impatience.
