Hello all. I've homebrewed numerous beers and a couple ciders. I'm thinking about mead. I'd like to do a small batch 1-2 gallons so I don't tie up a larger carboy. I'm also slightly impatient waiting for it to finish.
I found this recipe online and was hoping for suggestions to cut it down. The person also said it would be drinkable in a month. I wanted input from the experienced meadsters here. Thanks a bunch!
Wyeast 4184 Mead Yeast
5lbs of Honey - Malkore used 3lbs alfalfa / 2lbs clover
Few gallons of spring water
Zest of an Orange, with its Juices squeezed out
2 sticks of Cinnamon
2 whole cloves
Yeast Nutrient / Energizer
