Well, I've made my first batch of mead.. Poor man's cyser.... Apple Juice Honey a few tea bags and yeast. It was the most simple start up batch I could find. It worked for two full weeks and then stopped. I waited two more days and then racked into smaller containers. 13.4 % Alc...So I'm happy there, but it seems sour, or bitter. I added sugar to one bottle to taste...REALLY good... Should I sweeten the rest or will the sweetness return with age?? The best way I can explain it, is, It smells like old warm beer :-(......
Thanks! Ben
