Default Beginner question.

Hey,
I've just started making mead and have a question I hope someone can help me with. I was wondering what exactly is the white foam that is produced when the honey is mixed? Also does anybody know of any books that I can get or websites I can use to find out exactly what is going on during the entire process of mead making? I really enjoy every aspect of making mead and want to know as much as I possibly can about it. Thanks.

The Compleat Meadmaker is good, it's about 90% history, explanations, etc and only about 10% recipes.

Compleat meadmaker does have some history, but it mostly method and explanation. While it doesnt have more than ten recipes, the book is written in a way that you do not need recipes, it explains everything for.
