Notes: First batch was 5.25 gal of 1.112 (18 lbs of my honey added)
- Added Nardone yeast (2 packs, 3 in future) not cooled it down to room temperature after following yeast package. Overly sluggish start, took almost 5 days. Fermentation was sluggish. Fermentation had no airlock activity after 3 weeks. Lots of shaking to degass --> next time I will use the degassing tool that I have. Very sweet when sampled during first rack, but quite delightful.
Second batch was 4.5 gal of 1.096 (11 lbs added)
- Added half of the yeast (2 packs total) directly to the fermentor and half according to package instructions. Proper start, fermentation activity slowed after 2 weeks. Lots of shaking to degas --> next time I will use the degassing tool that I have. The first rack to secondaries tasted the best it ever had.
Secondaries
5.25 gal Sacred blue (8 lbs blueberries, 1 lb of mulberries) + 1.5 vanilla beans in tertiary (1 week) then add one cinnamon stick for another week (test it often)
2.5 gal of strawberry mead (3 lbs of strawberries and a handful of mulberries for colour) + tequila chips (1 week or so, test it often)
1 gal of lavender mead (2.2g of 3 week air-dried homegrown lavender, 6 days )
1 gal of chamomile mead (1 oz of chamomile from one SFB package, 6 days)
Any "left over" mead will become straight mead in a bottle.
- ZERO mead leftover. Perfect volumes.

other advice:
- I was using Lalvin EC - 1118 yeast is I was shooting for about 18% alcohol, but for most dark berry recipes I'd recommend Lalvin 71B-1122 vice D47. D47 is perfect for traditional Meads, 71B-1122 is made to bring out dark berry flavors. Just my opinion.

Notes: Cold steep the 8 oz of Carafa in 3/4 gallons of boiled and cooled water for 12-24 hours prior to brew day
to get the dark color and a more mild flavor. You can use a boiled paint bag or just make it like coffee and filter the grains out with a strainer on brew day. You’ll get between 1/2 and 3/5 gallons after the grains absorb the water.
On brew day, collect your boil volume and raise temp to 150 degrees - steep 1 lb Caramunich for 30 minutes. Don’t pay attention to the mash pH calculations in this
Add in the LME and DME, get to boiling then follow hop schedule. At 10 minutes left in the boil, add the cold steeped wort to sanitize.
Chill wort to 66 degrees
Top off with bottled Spring water to get you to 5.25-5.5 gallons in fermenter and make sure wort’s agitated.
Pitch Imperial L17 yeast and try to keep temp between 60 and 66 degrees. Yes it’s a Lager yeast but I’ve heard from a lot of resources that this yeast does really well at low to mid 60 degree fermentation temperature. |
