I've been researching how to make mead and so far it seems to be a pretty expensive project. I need to get a wine making kit just to start off, and then supplies on top of it (including 12lbs of raw honey!)...still, I am totally determined to make some delicious mead!! It seems like once I can get past the initial expense, I'll be all set!
I'm thinking one of you crazy hippies out there may already own one of these kits and will let me borrow it?? Send me an e-mail if you do and we can get started on this soon... otherwise sometime mid January seems most reasonable. I've already recruited a friend to help me (his stipulation: that he makes delicious mead while wearing a viking helmet), if you want to help too let me know (ncolao@hotmail.com)!
Until then, I'm working on an herb garden to supplement by toothpaste experiments (apparently you can make mouthwash out of fresh herbs and baking soda)... I've started with some lemon balm, but I'll hopefully get to some mints as well...
Okay, now enough talking, I gotta get to work on some of these things!
Anyone have any suggestions?
