I've long been interested in both the scientific and artistic aspects of brewing, but I don't like wine and don't like beer, so...
I could never have afforded it until recent years, anyway.
Why is that? Members have replied it is just a few $$ per bottle to make?
OK, the good mead is high priced, if your talking buying it.
Yes, but making batches of 5-6 gallons (the normal batch size) require a large investment, especially if you're experimenting. Even doing mainlly 1 gallon batches, I've easily sunk somewhere between 4-6 hundred dollars in just my first 6 months of mead making.
Not just the ingredients, but the equipment. I've spent more so far on toys than I have on the ingredients, although that is changing.Why is that? Members have replied it is just a few $$ per bottle to make?

which, to me, would be a little confusing........Barkshack Ginger Mead recipe from Charlie Papazian's "Joy of Homebrewing" is all I gotta say...
