Hi all,
I'm new to mead making and had a question for you experienced ones (I'd be interested in inexperienced thoughts too )
My friend claims he can get some cheap honey from a local apairist, but with a catch. His normal honey is market price, but he has some cooked honey that he sells cheaper and often sells it to resaurants got cook with.
As I understand it, the good raw honey is slung out of the wax and sold as is. Then he heats the wax or whatever up and it drains the rest of the honey out, but it's a different color. Apparently no wax gets in there, I don't know how though...
Would this be a good style of honey to make mead with? Anyone know what this stuff is like? Subpar? Just different color?
