Hello, I hope I'm on the right thread. but I'm making my first brew of mead and didn't realize I was supposed to get the gravity reading before beginning the fermentation process to compare to later readings. So I was wondering if anyone could tell me about what the gravity would've been for 3lbs of honey to 1 Gallon of water. I also have 12 once's of habanero and 20 ounce's of mango chopped up into it. Also, also, I'm about a week into the fermentation, if that's important.
