  • We recently went on a camping trip to the Grand Canyon and decided to bring some brewing gear with us! So we brewed up a hydromel with kveik yeast, honey, and lemon. With temperature swings from the 40s F to the 90s F, how did it go? We only brewed for four days! Join us on the Grand adventure to try to brew a drinkable mead in the forest!

    My wife and I live in Tulsa and will be taking a road trip to the Grand Canyon next week! Maybe we'll get a chance to check out Lipan Point! I won't be able to brew while we're there but I have a bottle of mead from MMM that I might take with.

      Definitely check it out - absolutely worth it. There's a place off to the right of Lipan Point's lookout where you can hop down slightly and get a view with no railing and brace yourself on the rocks. It was an incredible view. Makes your toes curls!

    I love the idea, I might have to try something like that on my next camping trip. The jumping from one extreme temperature to the other is one of the great things about the desert, shorts and the river during the day and a fire with a blanket at night

    • @DointheMost
      @DointheMost  3 года назад

      It was a fun experiment. I do wish there were less fire restrictions because I would've left the growler near the fire pit overnight to keep it warmer. But wildfire risk is super high right now, so we basically had to cook and then snuff the fire each time.

    Neat concept! Would try it where I am but it's more likely to freeze than ferment in Scotland :')
    You talked a while ago (on stream maybe?) about how y'all batch label your brews with like vistaprint shipping labels iirc? It seemed like a good idea but I can't remember or find anything more about it, any chance you could help me out with your labelling technique?
