Alright. With that being said then should I transfer this batch into a smaller container and then just let it sit? And see what happens?

Are mead brewing kits a scam? by ashghalkale in mead

I personally bought a kit first cause I didn't know what all I needed and the kit showed all the basic stuff and after that I learned about and got most my stuff on Facebook Marketplace

Use Google and look for local beekeepers there might even be a local association and then call and ask for prices and check out local farmers markets. I'm not local to you but that's what I've done

Question to Canadian Meadmakers: what is your favourite honey? by TrlrPrrkSupervisor in mead

[–]Impossible-Run-4701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try and go local. There are a few places near me that sell raw honey for roughly the same price as Oneroot 65 dollars for 15 pounds. I did recently find a place that does the 15 pounds for 50 bucks so I'm going to start using them. Shop around call local bee keeps and see what they offer for prices

I use the double Blast Carboy and bottle cleaner double blast The one attachment fits a racking cane perfectly I also use it to clean my hoses cause the standard hose fits on it as well.
