Correction: used more honey than that, forgot exactly how much..OG 1.129, FG 0.996

Yall must really like maple! Lol I made a acerglyn a while back and it was almost too strong, but that could have been that it fermented almost to 18%..used the following proportion (3 gal batch) 7 lbs honey 5.5 lbs maple syrup 3 cinnamon sticks 71b 1112 yeast Next time I'm going to add...

Ethanol* not ethical

Stupid politics and lawyers and their "benefactors"..no different than ethical in gasoline. Sure it burns cleaner....unless you take into account the 2.4 gallons (average) of petroleum products it takes to produce one gallon of ethanol, and how it produces less energy than regular old gasoline...

Ok that answers sonrhing else I was figuring out thank you! I'm going more for something to sip on like a mead. So not having to boil it as long since you don't want the extra bitterness, then how much hops would you use?(I'm sure it changes the quantity, same with using the malf extract...

Awesome thx, any advice on how you do the mash with the hops? Or is there a good reference you know on that part of it? (I've never done anything with hops or malt b4)

Howdy y'all, so I'm looking at trying out a Braggot, and was wondering if any of y'all could recommend a recipe to start with? I've made a melomel, acerglyn, cyser etc. But never made a braggot, or beer yet. So I guess a simpler recipie, preferably a 'hearty' one if that makes sense. Thank you.

Looks good

Awesome thx, it's for a 5 gallon cyser that I was trying o make into a quick light drink.

Sure, some ppl I've seen throw rasins in for the yeast as well

Id say maby a half packet

Good luck! I use the yeast packets so idk how much using measuring spoons

Lol.
