Hello, I have recently completed my first batch of mead and although I like it, everyone else thinks it has too much alcohol. (it was pretty funny when my mother in law tasted it and coughed like she was drinking jack daniels straight) Now I have been making wine for 6 years now, but when I did my mead I forgot to use my hydrometer prior to the fermenting. What I am wondering is how the heck can I test this?! From what I heard a vinometer is quite inaccurate when it comes to meads and white wines, so that is probably out of the question.
My only possible save is that my wife is a chemist, and although she hasnt ever done a test like this she is trying to find some way to test it for me. Any ideas?
