I started keeping bees this spring. Started with 2 small colonies in the spring. Definitely one of the most interesting hobbies i have ever done. I managed to get 120 lbs of wild flower honey. So with all this wonderful wildflower honey i decided to turn some into mead. Start with a small test batch.
5 Gallon Rogers Ranch Wild Flower Mead
Sterilize everything
12 lbs of raw honey from the backyard
Enough filtered water to bring up to 5 gallons
2 Tsp yeast nutrient
2 Tsp yeast energizer
10 g of Lavilin K1-V116 Yeast
Mix in primary and seal with an air lock.
S.G. 1.096 at start, 8 days later at 1.050.
It looks Beautiful and smells amazing.
cant wait to have a sample when it goes into Secondary.
