Well this is the start of something :P

hmm okey.. i used 15lb honey and 5.8 gal of water. Im a newb brewing. but i added a bit of Servomyces as a yeast energizer. and used wyest sweet mead yest. im guessing it will be okay in the end. tho in second ferm im going to add fruits and oak chips in 3 or 1 gal batches

I'm brweing my first 5 gal batch of mead. and it came out at 1.100 considering it will ferm down to 1.000 it should have 13% right? but what is normal for mead?

Well i just want to start at a place.. a porter could be nice aswell :) And i have a limited amount of space for brewing... could i "mash" thos grain in a 2.6 gal kettle? and then just add more water to the fermenter

Don't rally know what you Americans call those kits.. but it is hops in it an all. but you don't need to boil it! Another thing, Is there a limit to the OG before the yeast won't fully take of? (I had an OG of 1062 ish) Its been 6 days now, and i had to add a blowoff tube to my fermenter.
