Notes

Recipe is designed to yield 12 x 750ml bottles = 9L of hopped sparkling light yellow in colour mead.

Guideline: http://meadist.com/making-mead/mead-recipes/hop-head-mead/

Attenuation is based on data fed to Brewersfriend ABV calculator for Pelmo mead.

Remember 50 raisins and 5 copper coins.

Boil the water with 1/2 honey, add hops.
Chill and add second half of honey, stir, dissolve and then pitch WLP001 at around 30C (2 tablespoons).
Add yeast nutrient (4g from Hop and Grain) and aerate for first 5 days.
Primary for 3/4 weeks, rack and crash for 1/2 then bottle with 2 carb drops (total 24) each bottle.
