I did a search but didn't find an answer so feel free to point me at another thread if this has been discussed. I started two traditional meads a few weeks ago using a small amount (about half the recommended amount) of yeast nutrient and a box of raisins as nutrient in each. I used red star montrachet yeast for one and red star bread yeast for the other just as a small experiment. Both had a starting gravity of 1.132. Both failed to show any signs of fermentation within 4 days and both were repitched. At this point both airlocks started bubbling within 24 hours and I left them to do their thing for two weeks. Yesterday I was going to take a reading/sample �� and rack to secondary. The montrachet yeast was at 1.01 and the bread yeast though still bubbling every few seconds is reading 1.130. I am going to repitch it again but wanted to know if anyone else had experienced this before and what might cause it to have airlock movement but still be stuck???
Thanks in advance.
