/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Any homebrewers here? Let's discuss this shit.

What you see here is my first attempt at making fermented drinks in the home, the three jugs in question contain three different batches of mead (honeywine).

From left to right they are ginger-orange (a recipe known as the JAOM, or Joe's Ancient Orange Mead), a cyser (a combination of cider and mead, with the apple juice fermented with the honey, in this case a bit of banana is added for good measure) and a metheglin (a mead made with herbs and spices, in this case including allspice, vanilla, a pinch of thyme, some molasses. some tea and other stuff). The latter two recipes are entirely my own making so let's hope they go well. Batches are just wrapping up primary fermentation so I'm going to rack into glass carboys soon.
