    Jack's Apricot Vanilla Mead

    I just started a batch this morning using D47 cause that's what I had laying around. If it gets too dry I will just backsweeten.

    How many gallons of Mead, 2022!

    130.2 gallons + 2 gallons blackberry, 2 gallons caramel apple, 1 gallon orange, 1 gallon coffee, 1 gallon pb/banana/marshmallow = 137.2 gallons!

    Is my mead infected or just fermenting?

    You should have it fermenting in a sealed container, not an open container unless I'm misunderstanding? I know nothing about 'wild fermentation' so maybe I'm the wrong guy to ask :)

    Is my mead infected or just fermenting?

    Yeah that's looking good to me. Set it and forget it and watch the fermentation process!

    Curious about your receipt to get the muffin flavor?

    Nice! If you're interested in a trade, I have a 2021. Shoot me a PM.

    First time making mead

    If it's early in the brew you may want to give it a shake and get some of that yeast into the brew. If it's in fact yeast, that's an awful lot to just be sitting there.

    I've had those Darkness variants and they're all great! I think the S'More one is my fav!

    I've found Dark Lord ages very well unless you already tried it :) I'm a big fan of Phase Three as well.

    My first mead and I need some opinions

    Agree. Rack it to secondary!

    I had a friend recently try to ship wine through UPS. He got a call and said we know what's in here and if you don't come and pick it up in 30 minutes we're dumping it out. Just depends on how power hungry the workers are I guess.

    SG readings of my Blueberry Muffin Mead

    It's nice to see Dan and others helping out the new folks. Dan helped me out when I first started and answered my questions. It's nice to see a community willing to help in such a fun hobby/obsession! This receipe sounds delicious so may give it shot. Curious how the 'muffin' part will come...

    I'm told i bought the wrong honey

    Agree with everything said here. I started a year or two ago and have used all types of honey from various places and it all will make mead. In addition to what has already been mentioned, hit up your local farmers market or any type of community celebration where vendors gather. I can...

    Yeah it can be done. I use pennies within the package to be safe. Their flat rate boxes is an economical way to ship. UPS seem to be the sticklers for me. FedEx doesn't care at all but are typically more expensive.

    What's The Best Deal You've Gotten on brewing Equipment?

    A few years ago I wanted to get into brewing and my place of employment had an ads section internally. Someone sold me two 5 gallon glass carboys, 5 gallon brew bucket, 5 gallon bottling bucket, 2 cases of bottles, wort chiller, and just about anything else you'd need to brew beer for $100. He...

    Spotted Cow

    Agree on this one. I'm in IL and folks bring it back as if they've found gold. It's all about the psychology that you 'can't buy it here'. Now if it was really good I'd understand. His asking price I'm sure is due to his location. Cheaper to pay $14 a bottle than drive to WI from TN...

    I've used White Labs yeast. Same company on those IPAs or just a coincidence?
