Just started a mead Hippocras.
1360g Gales original Honey.
120g (ruffly) Acacia Honey
1 Lemon
Herbs: 6 bay leaves, rosemary and Thyme all from garden. 2 Tea bags.
Boiled herbs and tea, strained into diluted honey, most of the wax was removed from honey after heating to 70c.
Starter with Harris 18% yeast in starter. Nutrient 1tsp to start with, will add through ferment. 2 tsp citric.
Not sure if I should have added the herbs after ferment, oh well l'll wait and see.
