Hey folks,
I got a line on some bulk wildflower honey for sale, so I'm going to pick up 5 lbs. for $11.00 and turn it into four gallons of mead.
5 lbs. wildflower honey
4 gallons water
1 ounce yeast nutrient
5 campden tablets
8 ounces of dry, dry mead yeast
Should produce 18 bottles of mead at about 5% ABV. After fourteen days of fementing I shall rack it off into the bottles, and let them sit until the Christmas season. :wink:
IF I like the quality of the honey, I'll share the source with the forum. I hate mentioning a source for something like food or drink without sampling the product first, know what I mean?
