Started up Waldo's blueberry mead a couple days ago. Followed the recipe but had to up the water to 6 gallons to bring the SG down to 1.110. I also used Wyeast Sweet Mead yeast. Since then there has been an aggravating lack of activity. No bubbles, no foam, nothing.
I added a couple more teaspoons of yeast nutrient last night but it looked the same this morning. This morning's reading was 1.100 so it has dropped a little.
I'm used to beer and wine foaming and bubbling away by now and wasn't sure if this is normal or not for mead. I haven't made one in a long time. I've had mixed luck with the liquid yeasts but didn't want to panic yet.
Any ideas or words of wisdom?
