Mead Honey Wine Making Complete Starter Beginners Kit - Makes 6 Bottles 4.5L - Traditional Homebrew Set

Product Information

Accurate Testing for Beginners and Beyond: We even include an instruction sheet to show beginners what they should be looking for when reading their hydrometer. Whether you brew beer, wine or Kombucha, this kit can help you improve your product. Fermentation takes around 3 to 6 weeks for mead. But if you want to play really, really safely, you can let it sit for as long as 8 weeks. I prefer to wait 8 weeks just so I won’t get an explosion of carboys once it’s time to open it. (It happened to me once, and it’s definitely no fun)

SPECIAL EXTRAS INCLUDED: In this tester kit, we’ve also included a few handy home-brew helpers that could really save the day. The cleaning brush will make short work of cleaning your plastic test tube and other brewing equipment; the cloth helps you keep the hydrometer clean; and the canvas carry bag keeps it all together so you’re not running around hunting for a key component. In that case, you’d better just keep your moonshines to yourself because what’s illegal is selling, trading and bartering your mead for goods or services. But as proven by this review (I know, we were surprised too!), there’s actually a kit for every level of experience.For 1 gallon, you can use 1.5 to 5 pounds of honey, depending on the goal you want to achieve regarding its residual sweetness and alcohol level. I had a good time making my homemade sparkling mead with this very straightforward mead-making set. I’ve also learned a thing or two with its mead-making pamphlet so that’s also quite nice.

Because I’m not a nervous first timer anymore, this kit was fun and a breeze to use. It might not be the same for beginners as it’s too advanced, with the chemicals and manual included. Honestly, it wasn’t my first time using this kit. I first bought it when I was just getting into homebrewing. I gave it another try just to see if anything changed. But the quality is still good. The yeast and yeast nutrient are of good brands (pricey when bought alone) and it definitely helped me when I was just starting out.Before choosing the one product, try to research more on the different types of mead making kits available on the market. The most widely used mead making kits typically consist of pure grape juice, unfiltered and concentrated grape juice and partially concentrated grape juice. Long before your favorite wines and beers were created, there was mead first. The heroes’ drink. Also called the beverage of the gods. We just loved making our fruit mead with this kit. I wasn’t expecting much, knowing that it’s a starter kit so it definitely surpassed my expectations. The cap and lid were tight and my mead was able to ferment in peace and without interruption. Long term aging (and patience) are key to the best tasting finished product. Many mead makers swear by aging bottles longer than a year. We know it can be tough to wait, but once you sip your first long-term aged mead you’ll see exactly why people do it. Let me tell you this: mead-making is very easy and fun once you’ve learned the basics. So it won’t surprise me if you get hooked too. Because of that, you have to be smart and choose equipment with durable and long-lasting qualities, so you’ll be able to use them in the long run and make your money worth it. Value for money

This is the kit you want if you're looking for a melomel kit (mead with fruit added). The pectic enzyme is a must when using fruit in your mead and the nylon bag is a lifesaver when it comes to adding fruit during fermentation. Handy Extras In addition to the essentials, the Chefast Homebrew Helper gives you a few more items that no brewer should be without. The cleaning brush simplifies the process of cleaning those beer bottles; the cloth keeps the hydrometer free of outside particles; and the canvas carry bag helps you keep everything in one place. In 4th place, the Mighty Mead Kit – The Everything You Need Honey Mead Kit has made small adjustments to the entire mead making process as it consists of cappers for mead bottles as opposed to corkers for larger wine bottles. The major advantage of this kit is that the smaller bottles can be easily opened and judged on the basis of how well your mead has aged over time. Pros And although I can say I’m already quite well-versed in the world of homebrewing, choosing one online can still be a challenge.
