Second batch of jaom. 6 months old Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Ok. Maybe a one gallon batch to play around with is a good idea for me lol. I'm having so much fun with this so it'll be fun to experiment. And I have a gallon of palmetto hiney I have no idea what to do with. So I have to find a recipe for that also Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I am thinking about doing this same mead. how did it turn out?:ban:

4 gallons joam = 879 Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Well.... It worked! Checked this morning and there is a ton of bubbles on top. Need to seal the airlock better though because it's not bubbling but I know that it's fermenting at least. Thanks guys for your help. Now to figure out what recipe to do to use my palmetto berry honey and I'll be set...

Awesome. Thanks so much for the help. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I rehydrated about half the package for about 2 hours Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I don't have a hydrometer so I don't know the og. But I did aerate like crazy and I used lalvin d47. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Lol ok Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

How large of a starter should I make for the double batch, it will be 2 gallons after I add them together. And do I have to worry about oxidation still since it hasn't really started fermenting? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I like reasons to make more lol. I can definitely do that Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Ok... At least there's hope lol. This is my 3rd batch and the one I wanted I make the most so far lol. Got some really good honey from a friends bees that is super delicious. Hoping I can revive it Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Made a batch last night while I was already busy and realized this morning that I put potassium sorbate in instead of nutrient! **** is there anything I can do to get it fermenting or did I just make some really good lemon honey water? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Racked today, DELICIOUS! Never had mead before but I think I'm going to really like it when it's done. I can taste the orange a lot in it but not the cinnamon yet. Was really nervous it wasn't going to turn out but now I'm not. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Awesome. Thanks. I have a mini auto siphon on the way and a new carboy to rack into already! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew
