Anyone done this? I'm doing a slight derivation on it this weekend. My beekeeper friend wouldn't let me boil all his bees, especially not his queen, so I came up with this:
20oz whole honeycomb from the beekeeper
66oz Raw Honey/Royal Jelly blend
24oz imported Scottish Heather Honey
1lb heather tips
5 600mg propolis / 1500 mg bee pollen capsules (there should be plenty more propolis and pollen from the ingredients)
Target vol: 5 gal
Plan to let it naturally ferment for a few days and see how it does. I have a big starter of White Labs Sweet Mead if needed.
I'll post pics and let everyone know how it turns out! Plan to bulk age 6mo-1yr.
Thoughts? Experience?
