I bottled my maple-blue agave wine too soon (tastes like chamagne btw) because there was still sediment and I became impatient. So I filtered and bottled it and put it in the fridge (and my fridge is pretty cold). The next day (today) there was a layer of sediment at the bottom of the bottles. I...

My local Save on Foods (Canadian grocery store chain, idk if it's in the US) recently stocked up with tons of brewing equipment, compared to other save on foods which just stock a couple kits.(Yay for me!!) Not a great variety on yeast only EC-1118 and Coopers Ale Yeast but EC-1118 is pretty...

Everyone Loves ̶R̶a̶y̶m̶o̶n̶d̶ Cyser. Is it just me or does she look stoned? lol.

I've only ever made mead before, and I've been pondering to idea of making wine for a while now. One thing I noticed though, is that in all the wine making posts a bunch of people are all like "Oh no, you need minimal head space or something bad is going to happen!!!" or something to that effect...

I'm really curious to see if anyone has and the results. :P According to the internet, essentially certain proteins from the family polypeptides coming from grain in combination with CO2 is the cause of a head. If only scientists would isolate these certain grain proteins, to create a...

I've read a few posts here on orange creamsicle mead, but everyone uses water. What if.. you were to use milk and honey to create a Kumis type beverage, and then after fermenting it dry, sorbate, and then add orange concentrate to taste and then back sweeten with more honey if necessary. I'll...

Could it be good? I mean, I've never tried it, and yeah I admit sounds kind of nasty especially when you put it like "Your drinking mead that has had rotting meat sitting in it for two months", but, would you try it??? What sort of meat would be best? Maybe not beef or chicken or red meat, as...

When it's bone dry I mean.

Here in BC, the meadery laws are really stupid. They basically put mead under the same category of wine, which it is not. And you have to own your own apiary and harvest all of your own honey which you use in your mead (Were the lucky ones, in Ontario they have to have at least 100 bee hives to...

After reading a multitude of posts on ciders (a first for me, never made a cider before), cysers, and melomels, I'm now thinking up a storm about some type of raspberry cyser brewed using ale yeast. But what do all of you think? What spices would go with it (if any)? What would be the best ale...

I totally have no idea how to delete posts!!! This frustrates me. (I accidentally posted this)

Is it possible for mead where it was exposed to very cold conditions (under 0 degrees Celsius) would continue fermenting but would be extremely slow fermenting? Because I think this is what happened to me lol. Been fermenting three months or something I forget but a bloody long time. The alcohol...

Just use coconut water to replace water in mead? What do you think? sounds like it may be good I might very well try a 4 litre batch. (Close to 1 galleon, I am canadian lol) Anyways, any input would be appreciated thanks. :P

Hey yall, I'm new to homebrewing something to just pass the time I guess, right now in the works I have a 15 litre batch of maple blue agave wine, just out of spontaneity, but anyways, I'm looking for some good recipes for mead right now. On my mind I'm thinking coffee mead at the moment, I just...
