The maple I put together in 2011, bottled up the other day... I'll take a picture when I pour some into a glass and post that too. Smell was unreal when bottling it. :D

I hope that Agave isn't the kind that doesn't seem to fernent.

So when are you bringing over the b/p mead? I think my JAOM is almost done.

Its the failed agave mead left overs from earlier. I am hoping that the extra sugar in there will super charge the yeast and eat the agave. It not much honey in there. I might add more too it. :ban:

Plan a day and i can bring over some different stuff including the mead.:rockin:
 
Frosted bottle? If so then nice!

Yup... All I've been using for my meads so far. Thinking about getting some clear bottles for the next batches to be done. I have a batch of traditional that I might use the rest of my synthetic corks on. Probably give them a hot wax dip too. :eek: That would be funny with Brazilian honey. :D
 
I know I should not lust after another meadmakers mead, but you kinda want to stroke it like it is a nylon on a great leg.

Reminds me of the Leg Lamp from the Christmas Story flick. That should be starting up soon.

Aye, it'd DEAD SEXY!!!

I decided to use the flat black shrink covers on the maple batch. Needed something to help keep them separate from my other batches. :D Need to pick up a small (cheap) pot to melt more wax in. Planning on using some gooooold wax on a batch (or two) when they're ready... :D
 
Haha that's all that is left of each. I wanted it rounded nice. The leftovers I gave to people to try and everyone seemed to like them. Also they were only gallon batches and the bottles are 750ml.
 
A tiny batch of bochet.

OG is 87, the yeast is rated for 10%. Thinking of adding something after racking, either cold pressed coffe or licorice root or... I don't know...
 
They're young but the samples have been awesome. Somehwere I've some JAOM from 5/11 that a friend from work says is now terrific.

these pics are incredible!!! all i want to drink now is mead..

aaah there it is :) JAOM, with exact adherence to recipe; unsanitized, bread yeast and all :)

ah there it is.jpg
 
Haven't made any in a long while. Everything I have left was from a crazy mead kick I got in 2005. All my mead was bottled in late 2005 or early 2006. Have rarely touched it since. Here are a couple pics.

Blueberry vanilla bottled in 2006, can't remember if I added blueberry in the primary or secondary:
