I have just brewed my first beer and have recently noticed that basic/simple mead looks relatively easy. I haven't read much about mead but have tried it before and liked it. Would someone be able to use any kind of honey?
I'll be honest, my wife would be very open to the idea of me making mead if we could use the "local, organic, unfiltered" honey that we use at home. It seems like a such a breeze if we can get enough of it, just honey yeast and water
I might be be getting a second 6.5 gallon glass carboy on loan in the near future so I might be able to do both mead and beer. Oh man, that would be sweet!
Thanks for any tips to a potential mead... makin' guy!
*Edit - You can do a 3 gallon batch in a standard 6.5 gallon carboy, right?
