Transferred my Cherry Melomel yesterday from primary to the secondary with the funnel method to catch the chunks of dried fruit.

Yum, that looks good.

Where did you get that carboy with the imprinted label? That's very
interesting.
 
Looks good Masta! I began a straight mead at 1.100 and fermented it out
for two weeks to
.996 and then racked it on canned Oregon tart cherries and more honey.
I began the primary fermentation on 9-10-05 and bottled 9-11-05. It
tastes soo good now that I'm afraid I wont have the patience to allow
it to properly age.

Nice color and cool label!


I did a Red Raspberry Melomel with some Oregon Fruit and tasted it the other da.....it is good but still needs more aging.
