Makin Mead
Yep, we are making more booze. This time around we are making mead….aka: fermented honey. It takes a LOT of honey to make mead, about 15 pounds to be exact.
We added the honey to 4 gallons of distilled water. We added warm water to the honey jug to make sure we got all of it out and added more water to get it to the 5 gallon mark.
We then added 70 billion yeast cells. Now that is going to be a party!
To keep the yeast happy it has to be fed for 4 days.
Now we wait two weeks when we get to rack the mead.
