Hi guys, my mead has been in secondary for about 2 months and I'm planning on racking it to tertiary later this week. I know for wine, they say to add campden tablets at every racking, but I've seen it also said that for mead campden tablets should be added every other racking. I had a REALLY hard time racking my mead from primary to secondary and, as a result, the mead got splashed and sloshed around like CRAZY (which was incredibly unsettling. I'm convinced my mead would have horribly oxidized it if it had actually been beer), so I feel like I should add at least 1 campden tablet this time when I rack (maybe even 2?). As I'm not an expert on this, I just wanted to ask you guys' advice. (It's 5 gallons of mead by the way)
