My mead is a year old today. I tried it and it has a wonderful cinnamon/orange smell, has an amazing clear colour, tastes GREAT...at first. The after taste tastes like yeast... not a tolerable flavour at all. Can this be saved? What can I do to remove the yeast after flavour? :confused: Thanks!!

I need one because I'm having a hard time cleaning out my carboys with the brush I currently have!

The carboy on the left is 10 days old and the one on the right was made a few hours ago. The left one used to be the same colour as the right! I am amazed how quickly the cider has started to clarify. I am so excited, can't wait to sample it!

I fermented my mead for a month and transferred it to a secondary today, to top it up I added about a gallon of spring water and honey. Should I just bottle it or do I need to transfer it again due to the secondary fermentation that will occur? How long should I keep it in the secondary?

Great article, thanks for sharing.

I like the subject typo :D Viking blood meat! This sounds really delicious, I am going to save this recipe! Do you have any pictures of the finished product?

I made my first batch of mead on Wednesday, it started bubbling within 2 hours, and has been pretty steady since then. It's really foamy. I added orange slices and raisins to the mix, everything on the top looks white/thick/foamy and sort of gross looking... are there any true signs when it's...
