Thank you in advance...While searching recipes, I've read a variety of threads and found questions and answers posted here to be very helpful in my own experiments.
Ok my problem child: A 5yr old Blueberry Melomel that still retains the bite of a young mead, and now has developed the distinct taste of prunes.
9 lbs blueberry honey
6 lbs wild maine blueberries
water to make 3 gal
1 pkt red star corvue yeast
I don't remember the SG or PA, but it does have a kick.
First thing. Back into the carboy we go. I am thinking if I back sweeten, it may take some of the bite out, and I also plan to add 1 or 2 vanilla beans to smooth out the flavor. But the taste of prunes? Perhaps more blueberries? Any ideas would be welcome.
