- Today thanks to Adam we will travel through time exploring the mysterious world of Viking mead! But what exactly is mead? It is an ancient drink, made with honey, water and fruit which are then fermented. This drink dates back to the Viking era. In this video, we will discover together its modern artisanal production and how some preservatives could interrupt fermentation. Prepare to immerse yourself in the history and enveloping taste of Viking mead.
For this recipe I used:
Honey 1 kg
Water 3.5 litres
Raisins 200 g
Yeasts 1 teaspoon amzn.to/49FGLTj
TURBO YEAST FERMFAST: amzn.to/3Qt3bR5

Never quit the channel, you’re very talented and smart. Nobody does it like you do !
Thank you Matthew 🤗 for your support
I totally agree. It is the learning from here I’ve become famous in curd meat in different variants. I love this format delivered. ❤
You need to keep making these videos forever :)
Who else out there is going to make me smile due to their:
* pronunciation of English words
* circle arm work
* announcement of 'spectacular'
* down to earth explanations of great food and drink.
Your channel is GOLD (and 'SPECTACULAR').
😂 thanks my dear for your support 🤣 yes 🤪 my English is really spectacular
Keep going, you’re doing very important work.
Thanks Dennis 👍🏼
Keep going!
Thank you for all you do.
Your channel is spectacular!
🥳👍🏼🤩 thanks 😊
Great video!!
I think the sulfur dioxide may have contributed to the early stopping of the fermentation but it was likely not the main reason. I think the main reason why the fermentation stopped is because the yeast ran out of nutrients. Besides sugar, the yeast also needs Vitamin B, ammonium, phosphate, sulfate(small amounts), magnesium, and various amino acids to do the fermentation. Fruit juices contain enough of these things so they always ferment to completion. Honey does not contain these nutrients so the yeast cannot ferment to completion. If you want your fermentation to go to completion and the mead to be very alcoholic and not sweet you need to add yeast nutrient to it. North mountain supply yeast energizer contains all of the things it needs and for me it works great, but if you do not want to buy it you can make it by yourself. Simply add 2 packs of bread yeast to half a cup of boiling water and boil it for 3 minutes. Afterwards, simply cool the water and add it to your wine. This will provide your yeast with any amino acids it may need. You can also boil down a few liters (1-4L depending on what water you have) of water in a large pot until you reduce the volume to only around 100 milliliters and add that to your mead along with any white residue that may precipitate in the pot. This should provide your yeast with any sulfate, phosphate, and magnesium they may need. These two together might not work as well as yeast energizer but 70% of the time they work well enough. If you have enough amino acids from the boiled yeast, ammonium is not necessary, and it will be very tricky to get vitamin B without buying it. If you added these nutrients to the mead and the fermentation is still not going, try adding a little bit of amylase and pectilase. They may help break down some of the more complex sugars in the honey and make them more available to yeast
Thanks for this great information ℹ️👍🏼 very interesting, I will make some experiments 🧪 in the future 🥳
You have taught Me how to make "Preserved Meats", "make WINE & BEER", keep up with GOOD WORK!!! SPECTACULAR!!!
Thanks 🥳👍🏼
Best channel ever!! Don't quitt please.
You are authentic and original. You have great knowledge.
Thanks Marrit 👍🏼🥳
Love your recipes, keep up the good work 👍
Thanks ☺️👍🏼🥳
About the channel: I hope the algorithm turns in your favour.
About the fermentation stopping prematurely: my guess is a lack of nutrients combined with possibly a sulphur and oil treatment on the raisins, perhaps with a batch of yeast that somehow was a little weaker.
When I work with raisins I always rinse them with boiling hot water to get rid of as much sulphur dioxide and oil as possible. When I don’t use nutrients, I add boiled yeast because although raisins do contain a bit of nutrients, it is a dismally small quantity. Dead yeast does contain a lot more. For a 4-5 litre batch of mead, frontloading with 1-2 teaspoons of boiled baker’s yeast goes a long way towards helping a healthy fermentation stay healthy. Or: add 1 teaspoon’s worth of dried baker’s yeast, boiled, after 24-48 hours and repeat after 24 hours.
Thanks for the advice of the boiled yeast. I will try thanks. Can I use it also when I brew beer 🍺?
I enjoy how low tech and natural your recipes are. I can now make food and drink, i once thought too complicated thanks to your videos. I look forward to many more. Thankyou.
Thanks ☺️
I've only now heard about the problems with the channel and the algorithm...really hope you overcome them, your content is amazing!
As for this issue, yeah I've heard of it happening. The solution is buying raisins without preservatives, just sun dried. There are plenty of such brands. If you can't find them, then simply soak and rince your raisins or sultanas in hot water. That usually gets rid of both the preservatives and the oil they put in them.
I love mead so much! The ones I've made this year were a spiced cyser - apple mead with cinnamon, allspice, cloves and nutmeg, a mixed berry mead (they both finished at over 17% alcohol) and a pyment - a grape mead. The pyment turned out so good even though I used a store bought grape juice...it was a great juice however, 100% unfiltered juice with a mix of Sangiovese and Montepulciano grapes. No additives.
I'd definitely like to see more mead recipes on the channel, but that's only a side remark or suggestion...otherwise love your channel so much the way it is! Keep going!! ✌️
Thank you Alex for your support and for sharing your experience 👍🏼 17% 🥳🤪🥃 spectacular
Keep going, I love r recipes ❤ U r doing great job!

Thank you Leonard 🤗
Always boil the raisins for a minute or two, this will help wash the SO2 from them. Never had a problem with raisins doing this. Keep in mind also, if you're using "sultanas", that they're packaged with vegetable oil which is not good for fermentation.
Ok 👍🏼 thanks for the info ℹ️
I watched the entire movie with all adverts.... 😛 The recipe brought me nice memories when I was a child and my father was preparing such mead in a huge glass jar... Unfortunately that jar was kept inside a kitchen locked cupboard out of my reach... 😂 Thank you for this movie!💪
Thanks for watching the video and for sharing your childhood experience 🥳
Hi Andrea! I have found out about your channel couple of years ago from Gaz Oakley video, now i stick around only with your content, i like your style. Thank you for your work. Recently i brewed Blanche Ale using the recipe from your video. It turned out great, on the same level with local craft breweries here on Bali Indonesia. Will try more recipes when i move back to Europe, it is way too hot here for most of them.
Thanks for your support. Yes 👍🏼 in Manado too 😬 very hot 🥵
Do not quit!Suport from Serbia!!
Thanks Vladimir 👍🏼🥳
Love your Channel, I have learned so much. I actually thought you stopped making videos, I will make sure to help keep you in the algorithm!
Thanks ☺️ for your help 🤗
Your channel is an inspiration! I've made beer, wine, cheese, you name it, also thanks to you and your channel.
Thanks 🥳
Thanks!
Thanks for your support 🥳👍🏼 I really appreciate it 🤗
Good work
Thanks 🤪
For the sweetness of the drink itself, I saw some home brewers add sweetener that does not ferment.
Thanks for the advice 👍🏼
You deserve very big chanel, your work is amazig
Thank you 🥳👍🏼🤗
There would be another reason for the stop of fermentation besides sulfur dioxide.
Honey definately contains suger content. However, it is never sufficient of other nutrients which is vital for growth of yeast. This is the reason why mead makers put yeast nutrients like ferment-o or Ammonium Phosphate Dibasic.
Anyway, you did a great job though.
Thanks for the fantastic video!

Thanks for the information 👍🏼 and thanks for your support 🤗
Only a true man admits his mistakes and share the expierence gained 🤠 You are one of a kind 👍
Thanks 👍🏼🤪
Very nice !!! Thanks from Brazil.
Thanks 🍯
Also when I make a mead with not so much alcohol (10% or lower) I like to steep some rolled oats in hot water for a while. Filter them out and use the water to make mead. Gives it more texture andnit tastes less "thin". If I can find my recipe I can send it to you.
Spectacular 🤩👍🏼🍾 I will try it, thanks 🥳
I know you have seen your comment section. I don't have to say anything else. It speaks for itself. Also make some videos of your market food places or some quick cooking recipes. Pretty shure your subs will like to watch those and they won't take too long for you to make.
Thanks for the advices 👍🏼🙂
Never stop your spectacular channel because your recipes is very spectacular i love your channel. Have a good day.

Love your content. Would be sad to see you shut it down.
Thanks ☺️
What a wonderful idea thank you. Everything you have done has made us all better people one meal at a time.
Thanks again for your support 🤗
Another really good video but I have to disagree that the problem is because of the preservatives. If it was, the fermentation would not have begun. There is perhaps enough SO2 to damage the yeast but not enough to stop the fermentation. More likely, the problem is that there is not enough NUTRIENTS for the yeast in this recipe. Honey has no nutrients for the yeast and raisins have a tiny amount. (Most wine makers who make wine from grapes ADD nutrients to the grape juice to ensure a successful fermentation. Any mead recipe that does not suggest that you ADD nutrients is really a poor recipe. In the past most recipes for mead advised the mead maker that the mead would probably take about a year to fully ferment OR the honey also included all kinds of material from the hives and from the bees that would have provided nitrogen and other essential ingredients that raisins and honey lack.
Thanks for the information 👍🏼 it could be about mead but I don’t agree about grapes 🍇 and you can watch in my videos about red wine 🍷 not nutrients are necessary 😉
Thanks for the information about honey 🍯
Keep going man, your channel is a niche channel for food culture connoseiurs.

Good stuff. I love making it with, hops. It adds a kick..
🤪👍🏼🍺 I should try 🙂 thanks
Yeah, this can work well. Nelson Sauvin and Citra are my favourite options for hopped mead, but any flavouring hop will give a good result.
@AwesomeFish12 perfect 🤩

i agree, i started making my own Mead because i wanted a dry Mead, which i could not buy in the stores. store bought Mead is way too sweet, it is sweeter than honey itself.
👍🏼 without raisins it will be dry
Hey from Colorado, keep going bro!
Thank you Adam
Bought Mead high alcohol yeast on Ebay. Used this for your freezing alcohol video. Got alcohol at 35%. Spettacolare

Great video mate, I found it very interesting to learn about the raisins, I haven't been testing the alcohol content of the mead I make, as the recipe also has raisins. Some i have tried have tasted strongly of alcohol and others have tested low in alcohol so i wonder if that preservative is all the store bought raisins. Also ive used bread yeasts in many of my batches and it seems perfectly fine for mead 😊.
Thanks for sharing your experience 👍🏼🍾
Terimakasih... Ilmu yang anda berikan sangat bermanfaat...
Terima kasih 🤗
dont stop alcohol and liqueur and spirits you are doing great job keep going
Thanks 🥳🥃
My chef
, Excellent job good to see you again,
a Quick question, what is the maximum allowance for the yeast you used?
I've found that Lalvin EC 1118 (from Canada)has a tolerance much higher than 12%
I've made a Banana wine in the past that reached 15% Abv, but I guess in my hot country fermentation is a lit faster usually .
Keep up the good work, am immediately going to look for the video of the python
Hi 👋🏼 my dear
In theory 12-13% at least
Good to know about lalvic 😉 it will be helpful when I will move back in Thailand 🙃 if I will move.
Thanks 🥳
You must clean risin with hot water several times that will help you
Thanks for the advice 👍🏼
One more original recipe with honey. I am sure it's a healthier version. And don't look so discouraged. You have one of the best food channels on TH-cam. You have to capitalise on it for other revenue streams. Don't quit.

Hm... only halfway through the video but I realised that with a smaller container for the mead it might fit inside the Vevor incubator.
Yes 😉👍🏼

Very nice channel, Ive been looking for your channel type where I can learn how to make many type of wine. I am from Malaysia, so the weather is very hot. I am think to make this recipe, but how should I keep the fermentor in what suitable temperature? Thank you.
Thanks ☺️, I done this mead in Indonesia, so with the same temperature of Malaysia.
The best temperature is 21*C degrees
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato Thank you. So I need to store the fermenter in a cool place, maybe store room would be ideal.
Yes 👍🏼 good idea
Hello! Should I put sugar in the bottle to make it sparkling? Or is it naturally sparkling?
Yes 👍🏼 you can put sugar in the bottle if you want it sparkling ✨
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato thank you very much🙏
I think u should boiled the raisins before putting into fermentation
