    BlackBerry Mead

    I've only bottled 2 gals so new brewer too. I put a pound of BB in the primary (1 gal) and added BB flavoring afterward since 1 pound didn't give enough of a kick. Was one of 3 first batches of mead, no fancy nutrients just raisins. Looks awesome.

    Fermenting under pressure

    I know the Fermentasaurus says it can go to 35 psi but I don't want to test that. That calculator says 28 psi but for forced carb. I know I'm going to have more than what fits in the keg and don't want to waste 1/2 gallon. The plan was to bottle the extra but if I use the carb tablets on top of...

    Fermenting under pressure

    I'm trying to figure out the final pressure to set my Fermentasaurs at and have a hard time finding what it should be. I tried a "force carb. pressure calculator" but set the temp to 70F (21.11c) Could you share what you would suggest for an ale?

    First Mead 1 Gal. Vanilla

    I followed a basic recipe off youtube. I have tried semi-sweet and sweet store bought meads (the only ones readily available in my area), i liked those. My understanding is that the yeast will die at 18% since that's the tolerance. This should leave it sweet. Unfortunately I did not take a...
