10lb acacia honey
3.8gallon water
fermivin 7013
DAP 3.5gram
starting brix 22
Added 20lb fresh strawberry after about 10weeks.
The fermentation restarted and I noticed egg fart smell which wasn't there.
I was naive enough not to look up any information about it and kinda hoped it would go away.
Then about 4months later, that foul smell is still there and it is undrinkable.
I'm guessing my mead is having sulfur issue.
I tried hard stirring and splash recking. Which reduced the smell but it is still present.
I do not want to run it through copper because I'm scared of toxic chemical from coppoer corrosion due to low ph.
Is there anything I can do about it? Is patiently waiting for a year good treatment for it?
Thank you masters!
