Can use Wyeast Scottish ale also.

Pull off about a gallon from the first runnings and boil it down to a quart until it's almost syrup. Add back to boil toward the end.

Notes: Add ¾ teaspoon yeast energizer/nutrient mix immediately after pitching yeast.
Add ¾ teaspoon yeast energizer/nutrient mix 24 hours after fermentation begins.
Add ¾ teaspoon yeast energizer/nutrient mix 48 hours after fermentation begins.
Add ¾ teaspoon yeast energizer/nutrient mix after 30% of the sugar has been depleted.

Special Instructions / Notes:
Berries were frozen and then mostly thawed. I squished the bags of fruit to break them up a bit and used a large mouth funnel to get them into the carboy.

I did not heat the honey at all, just dumped right into carboy. I heated up some of the water I was using for top off and used that warm water to rinse the honey out of the jars and into the carboy. Used a paint stir bar on a drill to mix honey and water (and oxygenate). Added berries and gave a gentle stir to mix everything

Fermented at 68 degrees for three to four weeks with staggered nutrient additions

Cap management is important for releasing toxic CO2 and preventing temperature buildup below the cap. I swirled the carboy once in the morning and once in the evening for about 5 days to mix the fruit cap back down and release CO2

You will lose a lot of mead to the berries. I chilled the carboy down, racked to a secondary off the berries, chilled that carboy down, let set for a week or so, then kegged. This mead can plug a keg line easily if you're not careful.

Can taste a bit like children's cough syrup early on but eventually smoothes out, I haven't been able to keep any longer than a year before drinking it all.

Notes: Strike water was at 156.3, mash came out to 152.7, probably due to colder temp of grain that was mashed outdoors (-5C outside today).

Used large tea ball for FWH addition - hung off the rim, it sits just below the surface of the wort. All of the hops slipped out of the tea ball into the wort - oops!

Much higher efficiency than expected - planned for 1.020 OG, ended up with 1.030. Might be a result of the barley addition to the mash? Or maybe my system is just that much more efficient than James' is.
