My son and I are really digging your content. You have turned us onto wanting to brew Mead, which neither of us have ever had or done.

Both of us absolutely LOVE coffee and if this Mead has a caffeine kick at some level it would be a wonderful addition. I look forward to your response, and, once I can, to becoming a regular financial contributor to your work. (Presently, I haven't had income for almost two years... so... but good things are fixing to start happening for us.)

I think I might have had a brew go bad on me. I Juiced some red grapes and added some cherry juice. The juice mixture itself had a gravity of 1.074 and I decided to just pitch the yeast instead of add any more sugar. Visible fermentation (the bubbles) lasted for 4 days. At its height, the fermentation made the Brew look very pink. Now, one week from the start... It's already starting to clear out. I tasted it, and it tastes on the sour side.

I wonder if adding yeast hulls and an added nutrient source would’ve helped the yeast eat up more of the sugars in the honey and raising it to a 14-16% lowering the sweetness (perhaps with 3lbs of honey to 2 quarts of cold brew) Seems like something to play around with, might have to try this out once I get some additional regular attempts under my belt (waiting patiently on 3 gallons of Louisiana Bayou Raw Red Tupelo Honey to ferment using your raisin/zest/tea tannin w/d47 yeast and a gram of yeast hulls-only 2-3 weeks to go to 2nd fermentation if I’m lucky)

Ill say this I never drink wine at all. I made your guys banana wine and I was checking the gravity and was going to add more brown sugar because I didn’t quite have enough when I fist made it. It was dry and at first I thought I spoiled it but it was only 3%abv. It wasn’t spoiled but it was dry and the flavors were interesting. Then I tried my second mead I’m making and I’m letting it go dry just to see what it taste like. I’m not a huge fan of dry wine so far but I will say the flavors and mouth feel that dry wine and mead are definitely interesting. I may start to make some semi sweet. I don’t know. I traditionally drink beer or whiskey. Maybe I’ve just never liked wine because I haven’t learned to appreciate dry wine. What are your thoughts now that you guys have started to drink dry wine?

I believe the fermentation has stalled, Should I half it and top with water along with new yeast or just bottle?

Even drunk I would never think to make this. I wonder what tea mead would be like, if this doesn't exist then I'm calling it Tead 😀
