I decided to try the Joe's ancient orange (first time making mead) and it calls for a one gallon carboy. I don't have one - only have a five litre one.
I started the mead two days ago and it didn't occur to me that the extra air in the carboy (a litre and a half of air, so to speak) would create problems. Now my airlock isn't bubbling at all. Will it start late? Or is it too late to top up the mead with extra water?
