I have been reading alot about mead the past few weeks, and have decided to pick up making mead. I got all the required materials yesterday, and will start the batch later on today :toothy10:
A bit of history here first. I have been thinking about making mead for quite some time, but never really took the plunge until a friend of mine did it and when he started to tell me about the process, I was hooked.
My first batch is going to be simple: just honey, water and yeast. I chose the following for my honey and yeast:
Desert Gold Honey (mainly since it s a local company)
Lalvin 71b-1122
I expect that my batch will turn out well, and can't wait till around December to bottle it >
