    Xylitol lowers the temperature of the mouth, not just making the mouth FEEL colder. crazy stuff.

    The ingredients aren't mentioned. You are thinking of the fella behind the bar at the meadery. He says it has the finest honey and spices. never clear on which ones though.... And oh yes, the honningbrew is delicious. I lucked out in finding an apiary that sells fireweed honey at 25 bucks a...

    So, the Honningbrew was cold crashed at 2 months and tasted beautiful at 3. It's all gone now..... all 5 gallons.... Time to make more! I'll actually take gravity readings this time....

    he is reffering to honey as a sugar. thus the question, A sugar sweeter than sugar?

    ! stick of cinnamon per gallon is customary, but as fireweed honey seems to have a cinnamon-ish flavor (at least when using lalvin ec-1118) I was considering a half stick to let the flavor of the honey shine through. My Honningbrew recipe thus far (I'm going to try to take this slow for those...

    We're on the same page. My honningbrew is about 2 weeks into its primary. adding cloves, (ginger too maybe?), and cinnamon in the secondary so as not to blow off the more delicate aeromatics. After researching the Black briar more it would seem to be a metheglin but I like it better as...

    Use sugar instead, then flavor with honey?

    I believe it is technically no longer a mead when you drop the percentage of honey as fermentable sugar that low. Pretty sure this belongs under wine rather than mead as Fayash (A type of sugar wine) is a whole different animal than mead. sugar cane wine production video.

    I say cyser. apple juice with honey. Treetop brand is preservative free and available at wal-mart. mix then ferment. try lalvin dc47 or ec1118 as they are superb for apples.

    Possible Idea for Degassing?

    I'm using a vaccum pump with a fitting made from a spare stopper and the business end of a busted airlock to fit the hose over. It's good to hear a few pros think I'm doing right in lowering the stress on my yeasties. My research through the work of others leads to the conclusion that...

    Terrible idea. it is a POPULAR mead. none of these would make for a drink with such popularity. As was already mentioned, The in game nightshade leaves itself open to no such interpretations.It is clearly a toxic variety. Though I do agree on potential honey selection. blackberry honey with...

    Check the sign at the meadery. They are Honey bees. Couldn't leave my label so innacurate. flowers also lacked appropriate detail. follow the link at the bottom of the page. it will take you to my collected works. look under gallery/ skyrim. the one with the spiders is innacurate by in game...

    Good to see you here! I was brewing before skyrim, but my showing up here was due to the game. I wanted to see if a mini skyrim-mead community sprang up.

    Based on the mentioned only beer from fallout new vegas (obviously inspired by tactical nuclear penguin) This is a falout 2 beer label I whipped up using Frank Zappa as the long haired guy barely visible in the tiny ass original pic. Still no beer for the labels. but the labels are...
