Me and my better half.
I saw some pure cranberry juice in the grocery store, no additives or other juices, and thought a cranberry orange mead would be good. 2 lbs honey, 64 oz of cranberry juice, zest and juice of 4 navel oranges, a bit of yeast nutrient and campden, and water to make 1 gallon, and the next day I pitched it with K1V.
And nothing happened. It's day three now, I repitched it this morning and made sure the yeast was bubbling before adding it, and it doesn't appear to be doing anything. Possibly it's just too acidic for the yeast?
It smells good, though. I'm wondering if there's some "legit" way to save this, or I should just mix it with some cheap vodka and bottle it as is?
