Am making my first batch of mead, and what was originally going to be a 7 gal. batch is not up to 7.5 gallons, one 5 gallon and one 2.5 gallon. Secondary fermentation has completed on the 2.5 gallon batch, and SG was about 1.0. Tasted nasty. I added about 2 1/2 cups of honey (and 1.5 tsp. of stabilizer), which brought SG up to about 1.20, but due to all the other raw flavors (still pretty nasty), am not sure if it will be sweet enough when I go to bottle it after it finishes settling out. Does anyone have a suggested range for ending/final specific gravity? (I have a complete log of what has transpired thus far with this batch, should you be interested).
