Today we're going to learn how to make a mead in 8 minutes. Now, this process will definitely take more than 8 minutes in total. However, this video will show you everything you need to know in 8 minutes! Share this video with your friends if you've enjoyed it and go make some mead. Look for links below to buy everything you need your first mead or go find it at your local brew shop!
It's important to have a few things before you make your first mead:
Equipment:
Glass Carboy (& Airlock): amzn.to/2QP7Mxm
Auto-Siphon and Tubing: amzn.to/2YXorU7
Hydrometer: amzn.to/31P3PPF
Star San (Sanitizer): amzn.to/32OhXYF
Scale: amzn.to/34TSAaL
Bottling Capper: amzn.to/3buC6at
Bench Capper (Optional): amzn.to/32LZZpY
Hand Corker: amzn.to/32MlxCO
Floor Corker (Optional): amzn.to/3gPgbvq
Wine Corks: amzn.to/3jCvQ2Y
Bottle Caps: amzn.to/3lNMHSD
Bottling Wand: amzn.to/3hR8rKH
Traditional Mead Recipe:
3/4 Gallon of Clean Water
2 Pounds of Any Honey
2.5 Grams of Wine Yeast (or Bread Yeast)
Steps to make a mead:
1.) Sanitize everything extremely well!
2.) Mix your ingredients
3.) Take a gravity reading and write it down
4.) Pitch your yeast into the mead and store in a place to start fermenting
Fermentation should take 14 - 20 days
5.) Check your gravity and rack when it's done fermenting
6.) Optional - Stabilize and Backsweeten if you want it sweeter
7.) Bottling time!

IDEA 1: get your own hives and use the honey they make while hanging out on your weed plants to make mead. IDEA 2: pulverize two or three weed plants and make a wine out of it. Will probably taste like shit and I have no idea what the process will do the the THC, but that is why you need to try it, to see what magic comes out of the bottle…. Don’t forget to make RU-vid videos of the results, enquiring minds want to know. (No I can’t perform those little science experiments myself, I am employed by Uncle Sam and he doesn’t like his employees to partake of the chronic)….

Mead was the very first drink I made. I had some wine fermenting and I decided to throw some honey water and yeast in a small water bottle just to see what I can get, and boy it it turn out amazing. I think I prefer it over my wine, perhaps I just need to let my wine age until it tastes better

Be sure to degas your mead if you are adding yeast nutrient any time after fermentation.. I learned this the hard way. Added it to some active fermentation even though I likely didn't need it. It immediately fizzed up, I slammed the airlock on and it slowly made its way through my airlock. The water in it is now mead.

Afaik our ominid ancestors used to hide fruits in trees then forget that they were there after a long time, then when they remembered and went to eat them the fruits were fermented, which is we have evolved to have a high alcohol tolerance, after this it was just a matter of trying out which foods fermented and trying out stuff

Nice method..here is mine. I buy a plastic gallon jug of water, then pour some out. I pour in honey until the jug is full again. I poke a hole in the cap, after I add some yeast that I didn't start up first. I usually wait a few days, then I pour out some unfinished mead (this goes into my mouth of course) then I add more honey until the jug is full again. I try to add about 3-4 lbs of honey in all. I usually add some nutrient and Energizer. Then when I think its about done, I drink most of it without aging, usually only saving 1/3 in a bottle to age. I've been doing this for about 5 years now. Never had a stuck fermentation, mold, off flavors, or any trouble in general. Lately I've been using local honey. It's the best.

Last time i stabilized a mead and then added honey, for some reason the fermentation restarted, and I don't know why.

I made my first mead on 11-19-22. Just water, honey and yeast. OG 1.081. I added yeast nutrient a couple different times while fermenting. The yeast I used was A38 Juice ale yeast, it's what I had on hand. I left it in the fermenter until 12-31-22 then threw it into the fridge to cold crash. Did I goof up by not transferring to secondary first? Today is 1-5-23. Also, I didn't take a gravity reading before crashing it. I'm guessing it will probably be a little sweeter because of the yeast I used. I'm guessing I can still transfer to secondary but will it hurt to just leave it sitting on the yeast? I haven't tasted it yet either. Thanks for your advice. Vince

I normally use about 3 grams per gallon. Energizer is similar to yeast nutrient but not as effective. I would get some Fermaid O or Fermaid K if possible!

@giusax89
@giusax89 2 года назад
Hey there! Thanks for your awesome videos! I wanted to ask you something about yeasts. I've had the feeling that wine yeast, particularly the Lalvin 71B, tend to "expand" the flavor of the honey making everything very extreme, with the result that the mead needs a lot of aging to be less aggressive. Is this in some way your experience too? Does some ale yeast do this somewhat less? I remember back when I made my first mead with bread yeast that it was very easily drinkable, having reached around 10% ABV. Of course, in that case there was a lot of residual sweetness, but the delicate honey flavors were kept intact and didn't become extreme (too strong, and bitter notes). What do you think?

So, generally speaking, Ale yeast and bread yeast have a lower abv tolerance. I have a feeling your brews with those ended with residual sugar, which means it had some sweetness to “hide” off flavors. 71B has a higher tolerance and probably fermented through all the sugars which leaves nothing to hide behind. Those flavors should mellow out over time (also you can backsweeten to fix any weird flavors). I have a feeling that the ale yeast and bread yeast had similar problems, they just had sweetness to hide behind!

I’m looking for the stabilizer 4:45, on Amazon I can only find potassium sorbate even when looking up the metabisulfite , do I need both?

You definitely need both! Try looking for campden tablets!

I just started making mead today with a different recipe i saw on tiktok. Its been 4 hours and theres a lot less foam at the top like how it was when i started and i havent seen any bubbles in the air lock tho i do see some coming up from in the bottle. Did i do something wrong?

I love how detailed this is, however, a little concerned when you checked the initial gravity, I saw you add a little water to the top without mixing it, then it was poured it into the little vial to check the gravity.. would that make it a little off considering the water on the top wasn’t agitated and mixed throughout the solution?

You are right that could have slightly askewed the gravity reading! I should have shook it up some more.

@@ManMadeMead I’m a bit confused. How was there an 8% ABV before you even fermented?

@@psilocypher It was an 8% potential ABV. The hydrometer measures potential gravity!!

that is a great video! i haven't tried fermenting booze aside from failing at making hard cider 15 years ago and failing using a Cooper Stout kit (too hoppy) 2 years ago. i've always wanted to try making mead and your video has inspired me. i'm gonna do it!!!!

Do I still have to stabilize the yeast for back sweetening during the aging process?

@ManMadeMead Год назад
If you want to back sweeten a mead, I would always suggest to stabilize it in some manner just so you don't have any refermentation problems!
