    Cranberry Mead Recipe Suggestions?

    Never thought of a stuck fermentation being a problem. I would be adding staggered nutrient additions. The 2012 AHA winning Melomel OG was 1.160 and the FG was 1.050 using Lalvin71-B dry yeast and it is not back sweetened.

    Cranberry Mead Recipe Suggestions?

    Tomato Wine Problem? HELP!

    I started a batch of tomato wine 3 days ago. After allowing 24 hours, I pitched the yeast. Active fermentation was visible in 24 hours. The initial SG was 1.095. After 48 hours my SG is already down to 1.002. Do I have a problem or should I just proceed to racking to a secondary?
