I just want to make sure I have this down, and will not end up with race fuel. I have brewed beer many times, but this is my first mead, and needless to say i am excited
Ingredients:
10lbs honey
1 pkg Red Star Premier Cuvee Dry Yeast
2 teaspoons Fermax Yeast Nutrient
Procedure is simply, clean everything, prep yeast, warm honey, warm water, Stretch my back out and then shake up my carboy, place the air lock on; salivate and wait. Then bottle and age, I was hoping for it to be ready by christmas.
Questions:
Will 3 1/2 months be long enough for a drinkable dry Mead?
Are there any errors in my procedure or missing ingredients?
I wanted the Mead to be initially sweet with a dry finish, hopefully all goes well
