Re: Honey shine?
I have enjoyed the read on this thread. I started a honey mead over a month ago. fermentation is going very very slow for me. I have half a mind just to run it as is.

Re: First Watermelon Brandy
just an update. When all was said and done i ended up with a little less than a gallon of 40%. It has a very strong flavor and taste. It is in desperate need of aging. I used a sample qt jar with some french oak and it really produced a nice color and has smoothed it out a good deal and the overall ...

Re: First Watermelon Brandy
