When did you start it?

first on 12/30/06, and second on 1/20/07. 5 gallon batches. 15 lbs
clover honey, 1tbsp gypsum, 4 tsp acid blend, 1/4 tsp irish moss, 1 oz
rehydrated champagne yeast. boiled 15 minutes. the second batch i
put 9 inches of cinnamon sticks in last 3 minutes of the boil.

first batch started at 1.115, and was at 1.082 on 1/14. small bubble
ever eight seconds or so now.

second batch started at 1.117. lots of bubbles every 7 seconds or so
now.

the counter and sink. I WANT MEAD!!!!!

Wax and amino acids.

sounds like we're back to questioning the source of the 'honey'


Ehw!

Yeah. Are we in soc.men?

Looks around suspiciously.

Sounds good to me... froups list adjusted

Do you think that any of *them* there even know what Mead is?

I don't figger they're too finicky about the source of their
ethanol. And in some cases, they're even hazy on the ethanol vs
methanol question.
