+5 gallons bochet
+1 gallon traditional
+6 gallons blackberry melomel
=124.5 gallons.
 
None this year, as I alternate seasonally between wines and meads. Last year I made 4 gallons:
- 2 gallons fru-fru organic honey, organically spiced mead
- 2 gallons el cheapo honey, McCormic spiced mead

Still aging. It's an experiment to see if all the fancy, more expensive ingredients are worth it or not.
 
166 + 6 gallons of Blueberry Mead.
172

New to mead making....started in July 2020. 6 gallons so far, 1 traditional, 1 dandelion, I cyser, 1 coffee, 1 pineapple, & I cranberry. Looking forward to all of them. Cranberry & pineapple were just started. Coffee is next to be reracked to secondary. Hope to get @ least 10 more 1 gallon batches going before December

3 Gallons of B.O.M.M....well almost a BOMM. I was short the fermaid K, but, I'm thrilled to say it's chugging right along. It chewed through 33 points in 39 hrs. So, while NOT a true BOMM, it's still faster, cleaner & already more delicious than the first 6 meads I made. Thank you, Bray.:rock:

252 +3 = 255
 
1 gallon each of cyser, huckleberry melomel, and 10% traditional = 259 gallons.
 
2 more gallons of traditional, probably to be eventually turned into a melomel.

262+2=264
