Started a batch of strawberrymead yesterday. Had about a gal. of fresh frozen strawberry juice. Added water to 3 gal. S.G. 1.040. Added a quart of honey to it, brought the s.g. up to 1.080. My question is should more honey be added to it. I know it will ferment down, but most of the meads I have messed with, not many, seem to start with a high s.g. and finish off dry. If it goes dry, will it still have some of the honey flavors? I can backsweeten with some more honey, I have plenty. Just wondering what everybody thinks. Thanks in advance, Arne.
