Notes: We roasted the Tunas (Cactus) on the BBQ, sliced and scooped the guts out, squeezed the skins for the last bit of juice, then froze the whole mess. We picked a 5 gal bucket of Tunas and wound up with 10 lbs of juice (split between two batches) after we thawed and sieved the mess.
Mashing Instructions:
Boil 2 gal of water, cut the flame and add the honey to the hot water. Stir. Stir some more..
Oh yeah, we put the yeast food and a Whirl Floc tablet into the water with the honey.
Pour the honey water over the Tunas mush in the primary fermenter.
Stir. Chill with an immersion chiller to 80 F.
Pitch the yeast. It's all good.
OG 27 Brix.
Extra Ingredients:
las Tunas - 5 lbs of juice per batch
Yeast:
mine: Cotes des blancs
OJ's: US 05, to be followed with Lalvin 1118 (champagne yeast) in secondary
Special Instructions / Notes:
Use leather gloves when dealing with las Tunas!
OJ racked his fraction on 10/28 and reports that the gravity at that time was 1.010. Amazing how much the US 05 attenuated it! He racked onto a slurry of rehydrated Lalvin EC-1118 champagne yeast. His is going to be a very dry mead.
I racked my fraction on 10/29 and the measured gravity was 1.008. The color is an incredible bright red-orange. I'm going to let mine roll without any further yeast additions.
It should be interesting to compare the two melomels in another couple of months. |

Notes: Name...Max q
The max q condition is the point when an aerospace vehicle's atmospheric flight reaches maximum dynamic pressure.
Dynamic pressure, q, is defined mathematically as q =1/2ρv2 (dynamic pressure equals half times static pressure times velocity square).

Notes:
Mash the crushed grains and flaked oats in 1.5 gallons of water at 150F. Strain the grains and rinse with 1 gallon of water at 170F. Mix in malt extracts and Belgian candi sugar. Add water if needed. (Calculated boil volume: 7 gallons)
Bring wort to a boil. Add hops as scheduled and pomegranate if desired. Whirlpool, chill, and transfer to a clean, sanitized fermenter. If needed, mix in enough clean, sanitized water to make five gallons. Pitch yeast at 70F and ferment at 65-70F for seven days, then transfer to secondary for ten. Bottle or keg as you would normally.
