Ping to the home brewers and wine makers.
So last weekend I siphoned my experimental Pomegranate Mead into secondary. I had a chance to taste it. It was not as sweet as it was when I started it, so the yeast has done a good job so far. Spices that I added came through strong.
I added a cup or so of sugar to re-invigorate the yeast and the airlock bubbled well for four days. Last night I put it into the pump-house which is, this time of year, around 40°F. I figure to leave it there until equinox, then prime it and bottle it.
Question is, should I add new yeast? Stir it first and keep the existing yeast?
Any advice welcomed.
I finished off the last bottle of my hard cider. I'll have to re-think making that stuff again. Too many silly things happen after a glass or two ;)
