RE: Bottling day - my first shot at brewing mead

in #mead7 years ago

Fascinating! I look forward to hearing how it's flavor changes. Bottleshock is what we call it in the wine industry - when it's a bit funky or not "quite right" after bottling. Give it some time :) Can't wait for the update. Cheers.

Thanks Sarah! Rather than bottleshock, I think it's just a matter of the bitter orange peel taking some time to chill out.

I'll have to take a peek at your blog; I'm also a bit of a wine enthusiast. I took a class on Italian wines years and years ago that taught me a lot. I'd say that was the beginning of my amatuer somm life. Hahaha.
