Allen (my roommate) and I started our first batch of Mead last night. It is our first attempt at brewing anything. It was late last night when we started it. We pitched the yeast, and let it sit. Woke up this morning about 8, and the yeast was VERY active! We got it racked, and it smells sooooo good even at this early stage. In a few weeks, we will rack it again. It's exciting. 5 gallons of Mead on the way! I've gotten a few tips and ideas from close friends, and from a guy at the local brew shop. Everyone is so helpful. That's a great thing. People are willing to give advice and teach from their mistakes. No one keeps many secrets, but willing to tell their own personal secrets from their experience. This has been a good experience so far, and the journey has just begun.
I'll keep everyone updated.
