Strawberry Melomel #2 - Update (Lag phase over)

This morning the mead was bubbling every second or more so I decided the lag phase must be over.  I added 8g of Fermaid-K and 6g of DAP to a cup of water then mixed that into the mead.  The mead was right at 64F so I set the water bath temperature controller to 58F.  Things are coming along nicely.


-Update:  This afternoon I checked on the batch at lunch.  The SG is @ 1.110, Temperature of the must is @ 62F.  Bubble rate is picking up to two bubble per second or so.
