Mead Batch 4
From UtterChaos
- 15 lbs Carlisle Spring Blossom honey
- yeast nutrient
- yeast energizer
- Lalvin K1-V1116 yeast
Brought ~2 gallons of water to a boil. Added honey and dissolved. Reduced temperature of must to ~100F. Added yeast nutrient, yeast energizer, and yeast to the bottom of the fermenter and poured the must over it all. Topped off to 5 gallons with cold water. 8/8/2011
Racked off of a pretty significant yeast mat. This one's going to be dry, but very flavorful. The alcoholic heat is very strong at this point, but the honey flavor is also very prominent. It's going to be a very nice drinking mead when it's done. Light and very easy to drink. --Morrigu 18:13, 9 September 2011 (EST)
