Hello there I have a few questions about making a cyser first time I ve ever made one I made a traditional mead like two yrs ago but It was a 6 gallon batch w a gallon of honey this time I decided on a one to two gallon batch of mead cyser type I have three pounds of red bamboo honey and yeast the other things I'm going to add is 4 ibs of raw cane sugar and a quarter to half bottle of lyans golden syrup is three pounds of honey enough or is not enough for 2gallon batch I know its enough for a gallon batch
I want to get the most abv I can out of the 3 pounds and adjungts I'm adding also do I just add cider in with the honey or do I need to mix water n cider together w the honey? I might get a pound or two of buckwheat honey too and add it but wanted to see if just the 3ibs I already have would do. I usually only make big traditional meads never cyser so I'm not sure about this batch like I should be since its smaller and a different type
Thanks for the help
