That's a one gallon jug and a quart jack bottle and I'm going for one gallon of Mel but I had to put it into two secondaries as shown. I don't know **** btw except for my gut mostly and what I have collectively read and my own experiments. Just add honey and your fruit if you want to make up for...

I did some crazy calculations and hope to get what I was hoping for and will probably never achieve again if I tried but here's a picture of my blueberry Melomel. I used purée this time instead of fresh whole fruits mashed in a bag. If you have any room left when you rack into another, just fill...

Maybe I needed more head room? I'm not real proficient with the terminology quite yet either, obviously. My first batch was straight up mead which turned out amazing and was made as traditional as i could do it. I couldn't get that African wood which was the only ingredient missing, I used an...

I'm a noob and this will be my 3rd batch ever and this time the bubbling has stopped two weeks in the secondary and it's about to suck into it's self… it's looking like it might be a disaster, someone please help. I'm hoping I can save it before it does suck air. It was bubbling very nice for...
