My man, BC we are on the same wavelength! I made a very similar video coming out soon but love seeing how you interpreted this. Awesome recipe

[@DointheMost]

Awesome! Looking forward to it!

[@tomknight2366]

Glad to see that the great bread yeast experiment yielded some useful knowledge outside of the testing! Some use bread yeeeeaaaassssst...you do the most!

[@conradwheeler68]

Always good to remember that there are new brewers constantly appearing and they don't have all the gear that more experienced brewers have, even the stuff that is considered to be essential. Good video and welcome new brewers 😁

[@DointheMost]

I always love a good opportunity to try and make a really bare-bones, beginner video, and sprinkle in as much “however…” advice as I can!

[@josephhowell4250]

Oh hey, I used your pot roast recipe! Bangin!

[@DointheMost]

Awesome! Those melted onions are 🔥

[@dwadeweallin17]

Love this beginner friendly video to bring others into the hobby. Great nuggets of information and looks like an end product that would lead to a beginner making another batch. When someone recommends JAOM to a beginner, I will send them to this video and your valheim vids. Cheers!

[@DointheMost]

I appreciate that! I have yet to have a JAOM that I’ve enjoyed, but I’m still open to finding that golden goose bottle. 😂

Really Enjoyed Your Video , Thanks ! 🐯🤠

I recognize this background music. It's on a dancing vegetables youtube animation. It's like magic for my newborn baby ahe loves it. I'll turn this on now, while I learn to make mead.

[@johnoberto2659]

Another great video. Do the berries contribute any fermentable sugars and if so any idea how to calculate? Great video. Using cider instead of water is a great idea. There are few orchards near us

[@DointheMost]

The berries absolutely do, that should come in around 1.04 to 1.05. That’s why I wait a few hours before taking a gravity reading, so I know that everything’s kind of mixed together. So the sugars from the berries, the apple juice, and the honey all combine to hit that 1.074-ish number.

[@yourmetalgod69]

after breaking my second hydrometer I bought the poly one. It happens that things get slippery and we drop stuff haha. I have only ever bought one outright. but have got 3-4 of them from buying peoples beer supplies so I have been lucky to have more than one.

[@nomtombot2012]

If we were to replace the blueberry with blueberry Juice, what do you think the appropriate amount would be?

[@AM2PMReviews]

I used my refractometer and it's great for OG but I guess once alcohol is made, it isn't the same math but I dont think I have seen a video describing how to do this.

[@pieterpopster5549]

You carbonated that first bottle twice btw. I'm sure it's safe enough though. Great vid, thanks!

[@DointheMost]

Lol whoops!

[@EricC1982]

I did this receipt twice. 1 with ec1118 and 1 with rc212. Both are great, but i prefer with the rc212.

[@codyscmust478]

Where do you get your buckets and airlocks

[@amroth_painting8319]

Really new to mead just one question when you sanitise I get your using a no rinse sanitiser but I see a lot of bubbles left in your containers, do you just ignore it and fill up as it doesn't effect your final product?

[@DreNation090]

I love how this turned out. Question, do you use Chitosan and Kieselsol in winemaking and mead making?

[@staggerdagger]

Yes. Your preference between fining agents is just that, preference. I use those two very often and love them

[@Docholladay007]

Can u use grape juice instead of apple and then add black berrys later on

[@bananasean5145]

Dope video!

[@PatrickBuckles]

Great vid as usual. I'm about to dive into my first and I think I'll be following this oneor the Valheim one for the wifey. Trying to figure out the substitution for cranberries

[@babaG819]

I'm sure you've answered this before but have you really noticed a difference with over extraction of fruits/whatever?

[@orange-micro-fiber9740]

Is that 1tsp sugar into a 12 oz bottle or different sizes? I've been told 3/4 tsp sugar per 12 oz bottle. If it's 12 oz bottles, how's the carbonation? Is it a lot or good?

[@DointheMost]

12 ounce bottle. I should’ve made that more clear. For bottle conditioning like this I’ve always used a teaspoon and after about 5 to 6 weeks of conditioning it ends up being perfect (for a lazy estimation.)

[@compmau5456]

Are you supposed to remove the fruit bag after one week or two? The wording in the video has me confused Thanks!

[@bootsontheground3047]

If making a 5 gal batch, would you use 5 packets of yeast since the recipe would be multiplied by 5?

[@EmpressAdelaide]

No. Most brewing yeast packs are good for up to 5 gallons.

[@tim-tim-timmy6571]

Thank you for the recipe. I am a huge fan of your hydromels. I brewed many (maybe all of them?) and was never disappointed. I am going to try it out, I will upscale to 3 gal tho: blackberries are my favorite fruits to ferment. For non-beginners, what yeast would you recommend? I have 71B and RC212 that could possible fit. Unless you have other suggestions?

[@DointheMost]

I would go with RC212 since there’s apple juice in here - 71B will gobble up some of the malic acid and potentially change the flavor profile too much. Cheers!

[@eddavanleemputten9232]

Great video! I’m a fan of fruited cysers. This one definitely is going on my to-brew list. For the metric folks out there that feel a bit iffy about bottle size and how much priming sugar to add: I’ve looked up how many grams per litre to add. Here’s what I found. For champagne-like carbonation, the website I found recommends 16 grams per litre of liquid. True champagne makers will go as high as 24 grams per litre but that can cause your cyser to literally geyser out of the bottle. 16 grams per litre ’ll yield a strongly carbonated beverage. I usually go a bit less: 12-14 grams per litre, and for lighter carbonation I’ll even go as low as 10 grams per litre, which is more petillant than sparkling. As soon as the blackberries have ripened in the forests and hedges where I live I’m off picking free fruit for this cyser and for a few other blackberry brews I have on my wish list. Happy brewing!

Hey man, I was wondering whether you've had a slab leak at your house in the last couple months or years. You look extremely familiar and I locate them for all plumbers around the OKC area. I really appreciate your videos. I think that they are among the most thorough I can find about wine and mead making.

@@vernontafte1718 I did see that report - unfortunately the study was heavily flawed so we definitely need it to be repeated with better methods (largely because erythritol is produced in the body and they didn’t account for that). Currently I’m taking it with a grain of salt.
