Hi their everyone. Well I think I might have a Problem. I am Currently bulk aging a cherry Mead. It has been in the carboy for about 10 days and I noticed about 5 days ago their was this all over the top of it and along the isdes of the carboy. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/268/pict0018pl.jpg/ Some Info:
1. SG is stable and has been for quite some time so fermentation isnt going as far as I can tell
2. between 13-14% ABV
3. No funny smells or tastes(taste pretty good)
4. I used Aunt Sues raw honey(Sue Bee) and did not boil it
5. Yeast used: Vinterners harvest VR21
6. 3 days ago I added 1/4 tsp of K Meta just in case
So what is this suff in my mead guys/gals? Im thiking if it was nastieness it would smell or taste bad but it doesnt. Im thinking this is just what they call "Flor"?
Ive never seen this befor so some advice is required.
Thanks
