Very well could be. Meadlover didn't use any nutrients so I don't think that the nutrients are key to the final product. I hope it turns out well for you. You should let us know what happens.

Burnt rubber huh... Thats very weird I would say after 2 months mine was very sweet. What type of honey did you use? Did you taste it before hand?

After drinking quite a bit of this mead over Christmas I would like to retract my Cinnamon statement. It was very delicious chilled with a Cinnamon stick.

14 days primary A little over 2 months in the secondary (at work don't have the exact dates with me) I must have overlooked the Cinnamon and didn't add it... lol... If I had to do it over again I would probably either leave it out or add a bit less all spice and cloves. It has about the right...

I received a request for the ingredients I used on the 5 gallon recipe, so I figured I would post it for all to see. Before I do I would like to thank MeadLover for the original recipe, my batch turned out delicious. I used the following for the 5 gal batch: 12 lbs Clover Honey 1 1/2 Gal...

Last Sunday I started a 5 gallon batch that will hopefully be ready for Christmas... Looked and smelled very good in the Primary. The only change I made was the addition of Wyeast Wine Nutrient. (Besides upping the amount of ingredients to make a 5 gal batch)

Also did you use any Fermaid K or other yeast nutrient? Or does the apple and cranberry offer enough nutrients?

I know this is an old thread but did you use tap water? I have read that chlorinated water can be bad for Mead but haven't had any issues while making wine or beer.

I wish I had an Apiary closer because I'm sure its the best quality available. I did a google maps search around Milwaukee and the closest one is a ways away. But for $9.99 for 3lbs from Northern Brewer I won't complain to much. The only problem is every time I walk into that store I come out...

Thank you all for the info. I have a Northern Brewer within 25 miles so I think that is the route I'm going to take. Not sure why I didn't think of checking with them. Thanks Soperbrew.

Does anyone have a suggestion on the best place to buy bulk honey? I'm most likely looking for clover honey to make a 5 gallon batch of mead.
