So today I mixed up a couple recipes for experience!
These should be much more bearable for you to read lol
Recipe one will be a simple bochet style melomel:
One gallon of water
Found some delicious avocado honey local to Valley center, CA about 45 min from me at a farmers market in town. Carmalized 2 lbs for about 15 min. Waited for a rich orange color and till a very rich chocolatey smell emerged.
Added to 1.070 as I plan to step feed this batch to a sweet mead.
I will add more at just below where I want it to finish around 1.020 to 1.100/+
One vanilla bean about 5-7 inches. I love vanilla.
Juice of half a tangelo
One packet rehydrated k1v1116
1/2 tsp fermax
Must tasted delicous!
Aerated for a minute and let it set, it is open fermenting right now for the step up.
Plan 3/4 of a tangelo sliced rind on one or two slices
At final 2/3 break for a light to medium profile hopefully.
Ph 4.0-4.4
Recipe 2 is a semi-sweet show
1 gallon of water
Local ramona honey sage prominent floral mix to 1.112
One packet rehydrated k1v1116
1 tsp fermax
Aerated one minute
In a carboy, covered open for now to aid aeration for a couple days then will airlock
Plan for nutrients a 1/3 and 2/3 sugar break
PH 4.4-4.6
So here we go!!!
