My first batch I made with my buddy, and he has a certain way of doing things. I made a blonde mead, currently maturing in grolsch bottles. He likes to make it sparkling, so that's what I did. Hopefully they won't explode on me, hah.
For my second batch, I started it on the 31st of March and used nutrients this time around, around half what the bottle suggested. After learning a few things around reddit and lurking these forums, I decided today to aerate for the first time and add another dose of nutrients.
My question is about this... Did I do any harm just now, given the ferment is now 9 days old? I never took a gravity reading, I have no hydrometer. A refractometer is coming in the mail this week.
