I mentioned this in the chat room, and I'd I thought I'd write it here too...
I have a five gallon batch of pomegranate mel made with 24 lbs of honey,
juice, and Eau de Vie yeast. It had stopped bubbling several months ago
so I cleared it using SuperKleer. It then sat for another four months.
At Christmas I was going to bottle it but decided against it because it
had started bubbling. I thought at the time that it was probably just
off-gassing due to warmer temps in my kitchen, and that I was probably
being overly cautious.
Well, I'm glad I didn't bottle. Because this sucker is going again.
I haven't measured it's SG, but I doubt very much if that would have
helped predict anything. It's been quiet for months!
