Ya...Pretty much everyone has tried it.
We call it JOAM....Malkore has a more refined version....and Yooper Posted the orig. Try it...You'll either like it...or at least you'll learn the fun of mead.

What BK said! I went with Malkore's version instead mainly because using bread yeast just doesn't sit well with me.

Yup, a very well known recipe by a very well known man. I have made 3 versions of it already in a year's time.

The recipe doesnt say bread yeast. Im talking about the other recipe on that page.. with the yeast energizer and nutrient..
i only use nutrient..... but that just me!

Well it is JAOM, a lot of people that already are in brewing don't want to use bread yeast. Its a cheap, lesser alternative to good brewer's yeast. All of my 3 batches, etc the first, was made with brewer's yeast.
All and all this is just a updated version, with better yeast and nutrient and energizer to make a better mead while still being easy.

I have a 1 gallon batch going right now, with brewers yeast.
That is EXACTLY what you need.

Make it how the instructions say, it will turn out very nice. All we are saying is that it is an updated version of JAOM. Its been changed to include better yeast and the use of nutrient and energizers. Those three things will provide a better, cleaner, and more complete fermentation while also making things easier on you.
