      Ah, well this evening is more "suspect" mead, though I'm just having a go at a mead/apple wine blend.

      Both are CJJ recipes, both made with high alcohol yeasts (the apple with Youngs and the mead with ec-1118).

      The "CJJ apple" is the one with very high fruit that "First Steps" describes as having a "Cidery Bouquet".

      It did originally, but the mead tempered it some.

      After 5 months bulk ageing, it's produced a nice dessert apple wine with a hint of honey - but as I've got 3 gallons of it, it'll be 1 for drinkies 2 for modification or whatever.

      regards

        Sounds good! My Treb is now bottled, post cold stabilising, and final clearing! The Petit verdot is down to 1.050, should be in secondary early next week.

                        It is a nice drop, to tide me over until the real stuff is ready
