Ok, I am still VERY new at this whole brewing/mead making thing and I still have some basic NOOB questions. I am going to attempt to make a blueberry melomel for SWMBO and am a little unsure on temps. I know with beer making there needs to be certain temps for steeping and all that.
I have approx 6 pounds of honey (for a 1 gallon batch), do I just use hot tap water or does it have to be at a certain temp? What is a good SG? Do I add the blueberries frozen or at room temp? How much for a 1 gallon batch? Would yall recommend a specific yeast or I have heard about using bread yeast? Thank you all for the info and patience.
