Hi everyone,
I was hoping I might be able to receive a little advice, I am currently in the process of brewing my first ever mead and may have just jumped in without doing enough leg work. Initially I was told by a friend that you could produce a decent mead within 6 weeks, but the more I look into this the less that seems realistic, and I'm certainly in no rush. Secondly I believed that all yeast is created equal, though of course that too is incredibly inaccurate. I was just wondering if I could have a rough idea of what to expect from this batch, what and any tips on what might save it?
Thanks for any advice!
1.5 kg rowse pure natural honey
5g lalvin d47 yeast
1 teaspoon wilko yeast nutrient
And water in a 1 gallon demijohn
Currently just over a week into fermentation
