Back many months ago (March) we started a batch of Cranberry Blossom Mead. It was moved to secondary and properly forgotten until recently. It looks fairly clear, but it is definitely not as clear as when we made the "Quick Mead" using the fining agents.

Any idea when this might finish clearing up or what we should do to help it along the way? Does it need to be racked again, or is there anything else that we should try?

Is this premature to want to bottle this soon? How long should we wait then before trying any?

Thanks! ;)
 
Welcome to Got Mead?

Please post your exact recipe and process as we need to know what you made and how you made it before we can give you any credible advice on what to expect from your mead.

Cheers,
