the drink... not the actor !
I wanted to try mead making and was thinking of what to do for "my first mess".
Since Rowan fermentation comes from the age of Vikings and Mead was never consumed in the Norse, guess it's only appropriate...
So I am hoping to get some suggestions and ideas in formulating a recipe and techniques...
I could wash and crash Rowan throw them into the fermenter and add honey and then fill with water...
Or
I can dip em into boiling water for 15 seconds to clean) and then run through juice maker, rowan juice with 15lbs of honey for a 5g batch... (I have no idea about sugar content in Rowan, maybe with rowan juice I only need 7 lbs of honey)
or use Rowan to flavor basic mead...
Also if any-one knows/ can recommend a good supplier for honey and/Or Rowan
Thank you
