Time for more Carlisle honey mead.

  • 17 lbs Carlisle Wild Flower honey
  • yeast nutrient
  • yeast energizer
  • Red Star Premier Cuvee yeast

Brought 3.5 gallons of water to a boil. Removed from heat and added the honey. Rehydrated yeast in 100F water. Cooled must to 98F in a sink of cold water. Put all energizer and nutrient in fermenter, poured must in, then pitched. -Morrigu 21:41, 18 August 2013 (EST)

Racked. Harsh and full of yeastiness. Exactly how it's supposed to be at this point. --Morrigu (talk) 03:44, 29 September 2013 (UTC)

Racked again. Just a hint of sweetness, though still a good bit of aging to go on this one. The honey flavor is starting to come through again. --Morrigu 19 January 2014

Bottled. Nailed it. Another 6 months to cool off some of the alcohol burn and this will be fantastic. ==Morrigu 1 September 2014
