Im getting the ingredients this weekend for a medium rose hip methogyln
I have a gallon + jug
I have on order some champagne yeast and some yeast nutrient.
I'm getting 1/4 cup of rose hips and 48 oz of honey using 40 oz at 11 fl per pound per a honey site i found.
am I going to blow the top in a 1 gallon + jug?
I'd like to make this sparkling>>> suggestions>?
I made 5 gallons of kiwi mead once before and had a yeast bite from leaving on primary yeast too long...
Planning on making a rose hip tea 1/4 cup to 1 cup water and bringing the 40 oz of honey and water (128 oz total) to 140° to pasturize.
1 tsp of yeast nutirent to the gallon>
how long before bottle and how much honey or prime sugar to get sparkling medium bottled mead?
