December 5th I began two, gallon batches... each with the same ingrediants except one with raisins for nutrient and the other with beepolen. Now, here I am a month later and batches that began at 1.16 and 1.15 respectavely are both down to 1.08 but have stopped there with only a bubble every 5 -15 min and no change in gravity in about 2 weeks. Now I'd like a sweet mead when im done, but not this sweet! Plus I'm worried that with such a large amount of sugar it may be prone to spoilage in the aging process or even when fermenting this slowly. I'm fully perpared to repitch with a starter of ec-1118 but I'm not sure if im just being impatient or what... Oh, did I mension that they are clearing all one thier own as I type. LOL now why cant my meads and yeasties just get along. *sigh*
Worried that I may be rushing things... Tsuchi
