Hey I've been searching the internet for a few days and haven't come up with precisely what I'm looking for. Basically as I understand it, you need water, honey, yeast, and some form of nutrients for the yeast. My friend is trying to tell me that nettles is traditional. Were the nutrients not neccessary back then because of the open vats?
I also realize that making mead in that way, with so little control over the brew may result in bad tastes. I am only trying to get as close as I can to what was traditional in those areas while still maintaining some form of control. I am sorry if there is information about this somewhere here but I cannot find it, and I am getting frustrated. Thanks
