Hi all,
I have a question regarding my batch. This is my first batch using White Labs Sweet Mead Yeast...and am off to a VERY slow start, in fact it's not showing activity in the airlock (after 4 days). Here's the recipe:
for 5 Gallons-
12# Blackberry Honey
1 vial White Labs Sweet Mead Yeast (at room temp)
1/2tsp Energizer
2tsp Nutrient
Water to make 5 gallons
It's doing it's primary in a fermenting bucket (first time using one). It's sitting in my laundry room @ 70degrees.
I've talked to the local brewery store gentlemen who said not to worry, but I wanted to post here for a little more feedback.
Thanks in advance!
