Not all in one batch. I've slowly increasing the size of my jao batches since they keep running out before they can age. I want to brew enough that I create more than I can drink in the 3 months it generally takes mine to come ready.

Two legged cellar rats have made this difficult however.

I currently have a 5 gallon batch ready that is earmarked for Christmas gifts, so that's going to get all used up too. that's 5 gallons that was pitched around 6/9/2011.

The other 8 gallons are sitting in a closet and won't come ready till around the first of the year as they were just pitched a month ago.

then there's the 5 gallons of beer, 1 gallon mead experiments, the upcoming red wine and Ciders. I've got enough hooch sitting around here for a hell of a hangover.


.... at less than 50 gallons total I'm willing to bet it pales compared to others here though :)

How much Dandilions did you put into your Meth? I have some Honey with a lot of Dandilion in it. I don't really like Dandilion honey. I wonder if I would like the mead?
