Well, after some nagging, I decided to prep a couple of gallons of 3 year old traditional mead.
So after blending 2 gallons together, then back sweetening it with 200mls of 50/50 honey and water syrup (1.012) , plus 1.5 tsp of "mead acid" (2 parts malic 1 part tartaric) and a teaspoon of grape tannin, I now have 2 gallons that were clear, have about an inch of weird looking fluffy sediment in them.
So I'm guessing that I'll have to filter it again, before I can get it in bloody bottles !
