Raspberry Melomel

[nursejohn]

I am very new to mead making. I started a raspberry melomel around the first of December. I racked it the second time a couple of days ago and was wondering if this particular mead will clear enough to see through it or will it remain a darker red color (not being able to see through it)? Just curious since I am new at this. Thanks, John.

That all depends on the amount of fruit used and also if you got good color extraction from the berries. Its usually very dark but usually I can barely see through the wine. if you look at the attached image the 1 all the way on the right was my raspberry melomel.

Thanks for the reply. Right now I can't see through it at all, so I'll give it some time to clear. I appreciate the help, John.
