Make mead.

I swear I am going to get this done and it will be soon. I now have all the stuff I think I am going to need together. I’ve got about everything figured out. Barring the part where I decided all the recipes I’m finding are way to complex for something that has been produced since 8000 B.C. E. or roughly 10,000 years. So for this first batch I’m going to wing it. THEN regardless of how this turns out I’m going to see about finding a recipe and following it to the letter from the start. If I could find the way the Vikings originally did it I would be interested in trying that too. Seems simple enough to be along the lines of… Add water and let the wild yeasts do their thing. BUT I don’t know that for sure. Anywho this started out as a random “I want to try this” while watching 13th warrior. So in the random experimental nature I’m going to wing it on this first batch… and unless it kills me. There will be a second batch

Finally got the yeast, got 2 types both Redstar brand wine yeasts from a bar/brewing supply in Bloomington. I’ve got a pair of 1 gallon jugs for the final product… now I just have to do the hard part… technicalites.

got the honey couple weekends ago. Now where the hell do I find the sorts of yeast recommended in this area… probably can find something in Bloomington if I look hard enough.

Should be getting honey for this next weekend.
