Sorry about falling off the face of the earth for the last few months. Had a lot happen including getting a job that had me on call 24/7 which really affected my mead consumption and brewing in a bad way. Well the job didn't last, maybe I learned my lesson this time on being on call 24/7, it does not fit my lifestyle. Got a lot to get caught up on, still brewing and keeping my hives in sunny Florida. ;D

Welcome back. :cheers:

I understand the 24/7 oncall thing. I have that for short time periods at my work. Not fun at all. And it does very adversly affect the time and energy for consumption and fermentation in a bad way.
