Hey guys,
I am interested in jumping into different yeasts with my meads. One I am interested in using is a saison yeast, as I heard they can bring interesting spice notes after fermentation. Therefore I was wondering if any would be interested in critiquing a strawberry peppercorn saison mead I had planned.
5 gallon recipe:
clover, wildflower, or orange blossom honey (probably lower abv so somewhere around 10-11lbs)
10-13lbs frozen strawberries in secondary
1 and 1/4 teaspoon peppercorns
Wyeast 3724 Belgian Saison
Most likely kegged after aging for 3 months
I would love to hear any ideas people have for this recipe. I am not familiar with working with ale yeasts so not quite sure what to expect.
