Subject: Apple flavor in cyser 

Hi all. My brewpartner is about to bottle his first cyser. (8 lbs 
buckwheat honey in 5 gallons of apple cider w/ some cinnamon. 
Champagne yeast.) Right now, it's so tart that we can't even taste 
the young-mead character (3 months old in the secondary). Is this 
tartness going to mellow in a reasonable amount of time? Should we add 
some lactose or something sweet but unfermentable? Should we not have 
used buckwheat honey? 

Hmm, 
Jake.
