I got a Mr. Beer early this month, but I hate beer (get out of here pansey!) Sorry, I just havent found a beer I like, anyway I decided to make mead (NERD) thinking the carbonation is what I don't like about beer.
I wanted something creamy or buttery tasting, so I found a simple mead recipe and switched out the honey with a honey creme syrup. No hops, just water, yeast, and the honey creme syrup.
I was going to let it do it's thing for a month or 2 before I checked it, but seeing as tonight is New Years I figured I'd let my family try it, but it's only been 20 days since I started it.
I tried it just now, and it did exactly what I didn't want it to, it carbonated.
What do I need to do in my next batch to not get carbonation? I've never had mead, and I wanted something still, but now I've got this wine everyone but me will like, well...it tasted ok actually, just the carbonation reminded me of ginger ale.
