Hello there, I've been doing some research into mead and intend to start a batch in about a month when I'm back from holiday. Problem is just googling it returns very mixed results, some people saying it's incredibly simple to others saying it's rather complicated. My brewing experience is rather limited, basically only beer kits and watching a friend make beer from hops and malt. So is it as simple as fermenting water and honey, or is there a need for all sorts of stabilizers and periodical turning of the fermentation vessel(something like that mentioned?).
And also, I understand mead is essentially honey wine, is there a special kind of yeast for this or would a generic wine yeast be suitable?
Thanks in advance
