How's the Meadery coming along?
Thanks so much for asking! We work on the building every weekend, state liquor license has been submitted. We are just waiting for that process. Once we are approved by the town and state, plus the town health inspector gives us the green light, we will be brewing away! Hoping to have some product ready by the end of the year...hopefully! Thanks for watching and asking! We will try and make a video of the space soon!
@@MeadingOfTheMinds did you guys use an attorney to draft Articles of Organization? What route did you go for funding?
No attorney, the Articles of Organization was made when we made our LLC. As for funding, we are basically funding this out of our own pockets. I've been finding it very difficult to find a small business grant for our business type that doesn't require we have been a business with income for 3+ months.
I think it's the smoke making it seem dryer than it is.
That's possible the different smokes have come across with subtle but noticeable qualities. Cherry does seem to feel dryer than apple for sure. Thanks for watching!
I’m gonna have to try this one. 2 weeks ago at my friends in Texas I tried for the first time some bourbon and they smoked it with pecan. So I have to buy one now.
By far my favorite has been apple wood, with mixed results of others. Lemme know what kind of wood you land on!
@@MeadingOfTheMinds will do
Yay
Could use lactose for softer tones and creamy
Diabetuh coming in nicely TOOBZ. I guess you watch cobes too😂
You know it! But we thought it up first! 🤣
@@MeadingOfTheMinds hey tell me about it! I started brewing meads because of boglim and my first few were not far off the bog slop 😂 I'm just cooking up a nice botchet batch as I type, so conclusions drew themselves after a few carboys full of sugary shite that ends up dry and gasoline tasting
We all have to start somewhere, you just have a crazier story
@@MeadingOfTheMinds bog slop experiments with sodas do draw people in, that's for sure. I brewed fanta which tasted like caustic soda and rotten orange and Dr pepper which had some redeeming qualities but was pretty hard to drink overall. But then I moved on to more traditional stuff which does taste good and got into brewing for good. Apart for botchet I've a pretty experimental methglin bubbling away now and daily checks make my day
@7:05 - top notch editing, I love it!
Thank you for this, I have made some wine that even after a year are not drinkable. I guess you just keep moving on Carl
It was a real bummer because orange soda was a childhood favorite of mine. We may try a re-do...
Do you think it was the dehydrated honey that made the carroty flavor? Have you used it anywhere else?
We have used it elsewhere and hasn't given us this issue!
You could have just added a spoon of honey to your glass to see how it tasted sweet.
14:39 I'd have used half the jar and put it in first so the juice could mix it up and no splashies. Just sayin I eat habenaro's whole.
Those are some VERY happy yeasties... obviously well fed! Whatcha got cookin?
A Pear Rhodomel! We will post a full video once it's done! Thanks for watching!
Sounds delicious, I look forward to the update!! Happy fermenting 😊
The Earth is Flat.
Seems implausible, thanks for watching
I'm also wanting to try a dried coffee cherry tea Mead or Wine. No idea what yeast I would use. Coffee cherry tea taste a lot like cranberry juice.
I would like to try using Safale US05 for a blueberry Cyzer or even a hibiscus Orange Mead.
So maybe it would make a nice Pineapple Mango Mead. QA23
The little wooden bottle dryers. Are they from Amazon too?
Yes! Here is the link for those: amzn.to/3Vsujm7 But we recently got this one and love it for bottles amzn.to/3VnqWg1
You can send one of those to Arkansas if you like. 😊
Ohh, and I'm catching up on some of y'alls shows so you might see a comment or two in older episodes. Lol
So, what did y'all use to put the smoke in the jar? Can you post the link if it has one? Thanks.
Here is our affiliate link to the one we have! There are others out there, but this is the one we received as a gift. Note: you need to also get a little butane bottle for it as it doesn't come with one. amzn.to/3xd3sAS
@@MeadingOfTheMinds Thank you
I think the Fermaid-O works pretty well I've had really good luck with it. Matter of fact right now we have a well I call it I kilju with mint and lime in it that started out and is fermenting great and there's usually issues with that. We also use Go-ferm as well. We've never tried Fermax though.
We had one go hard for a couple days. Thought we were going to need a blow off tube. Lol
LOL! We've had some...explosions before lol
@15:00 - i know "cider with kevin" did a 4 yeast shootout and he prefers the cote de Blanc yeast. Maybe that influenced the local brew shop?
Possibly, I try to limit my intake of other mead creators now we are in the game, to try and get info from the makers in my area because who else should know more about local AZ flavors right? But you could be absolutely right, cause when I trolled for this content I watched anything related.
@4:11 if you have a 3d printer (or know someone who does), then you xan just print one the size you need
I have heard when you ferment strawberries it gives it a "bandaid" flavor. Does that happen to you? Or do you do something to prevent that off flavor?
Well, I can tell you for sure we get a strawberry funk, but I haven't heard it described as "bandaid". But also full disclosure I've eaten very few bandaids. It's definitely something that is quantifiable but difficult to describe. Either way it ages out so as long as you don't rush it, it's usually no problem. Thanks for watching!
That comes from Fermenting inside Plastic and the seeds of the Strawberry. Don’t leave your strawberries in the primary too long. Remove them and put in new strawberries.
My mom makes a lot of pie and jams that are combo's with apple...Apple-Blueberry Pie is amazing
Sounds delicious! Thanks for tuning in!
What local brew shop do you use?
We go to Brew Your Own Brew on Gilbert road!
How many brews do you guys generally have active at any given time?
Right now, I think we are in the ballpark of about 30 different brews! Hence the forgetfulness lol. Thanks so much for watching!
Nice recipe. What size is the fermenter you're using? You guys should consider putting affiliated links to the equipment you use too.
It's a 3 gallon fermonster! I'll work on affiliated links! Thanks for the suggestion and thanks for tuning in!
Made my first batch of mead today i Hope it will be good 😅
One of our local greenhouses has coolepenos, a less spicy version of the jalapeno. Might be a fun summer brew for me!
That's awesome! Definitely let us know how it is! Do they look different than a normal jalapeno? Christa actually ended up making a berry jalapeno brew and it came out surprisingly good with no grass flavor!
@@MeadingOfTheMinds All I've seen were the sprouts, but I don't think there was much difference appearance wise
Coke has it labeled as Mexican Coke
Yup! After we recorded the first part making the Pepsi, we forgot about the Mexican Coke! We have since gotten some and have a few batches going! Thanks for watching!
Have you ever tried Pacific Rose apples?!
We haven't yet, and I don't even think I've seen them around. But I'll be on the lookout now. Thanks for watching!
@@MeadingOfTheMinds They are really delicious apples.
Dave's eyes at 10:56 was hilarious
That one's for you!
Got this video on my fy page. In somplaces I would cut part of video. Overall I liked it, so good job guys. Good luck with future content!
Thank you! Yes, looking back I should have cut some can opening and some drilling... but hindsight is 20/20. Thanks so much for watching!
Dude it is a craving if you want a soda lol
I dunno, now that I'm not smelling it I'm not missing it.... If I crack into one of the cases for future batches in a moment of sweaty desperation I'll let you know lol. Thanks for watching!
@@MeadingOfTheMinds Your welcome.
Christa's expressions are the best!
Haha! Thanks! Also, thanks for watching!
It sounds good. I've never heard of a Lucy Rose Apple. Good show. More detail needed on how to make it. Thanks.
I like you guys. Keep'em coming!
Hey thanks! We will be dropping a video tonight! Plus plenty down the pipe. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
So I’m new to home brew as of this year, but I used that tree top juice to make an apple wine. I kind of like the cloudy. Does it actually affect the result, or is it just a thing people care about with wine?
Clarity is more of a personal preference thing really. We have some brews that just never clear, and some that you're able to read through it. We don't believe it affects the taste at all, it can just seem more pleasing to drunk something crystal clear 😊
Love it happy to find another brewing channel, can’t wait to see how the channel progresses!
Thanks so much for tuning in! Happy brewing and 🍻 cheers!
Does this end up tasting a bit like a cherry cough drop or cherry cough syrup?
Not to these taste buds. All the ingredients come together to make an almost savory, hot, yet sweet beverage that I've never found a detractor of. Give it a shot and lemme know what you think! Thanks for watching!
I may be mistaken but I would call it a cyser not a mead.
That's the beauty. You can call it whatever you like cause I doubt anyone's going to turn down a glass. Thanks for watching!
Definitely going to try this, thanks guys!
For sure! Thanks for tuning in!
Cheers 🍻
Cheers!
I’ve never seen those apples
We never had either until we saw them at Sprouts! Hopefully they come back soon!
