Cheers Jeff!

Ok now I have to make some mead soon. Thanks for the tips on mead. Another good video guys!
And then send one over!
Great video, cheers from Idaho. Can’t wait to pitch this brew with my bro’s.
cheers pieter!
Great T shirts at an awesome price! Excellent video!
I used to do a slightly higher ABV when I started making mead back in the early 90's. I used 3 lb per gallon and it was decidedly sweet, but that was what they call a sack mead and supposed to be sweet. These days, what with honey being as expensive as it is, I've learned the value of dialing back on the honey and even doing some melomels. Good work, boys.
Hell yeah! I've been thinking about making some more mead lately, I think I'll have to make a batch.
yeah buddy thanks again for the art amigo!
@@HOMEBREW4LIFE Of course!
I’m totally buying all your shirts!
Bad A$$ as always! Congrats on moving some merch - proud to rock my T around town & thanks for the shirt shout! - G
George Schroeder love the support george cheers!
How do y’all not have more views? Top quality vids
Trever Knie cheers trevor!
I gotta try this out, cheers boyzzz 👯♀️
Cheers mike!
Sweet, we haven't tried making mead before....adding this to the to-do list!
Cheers guys!
How about a how to for Applejack? Solid episode!
You've read my mind, you've read my mind
Made some Mango mead been aging for six months and a year.... kinda crappy but drinkable.... definitely will try it again following your sage'd teachings... THANKS again.... BTW where can I get the T-shirt?
Shane Brooker homebrew4life.com usually i just wait a month for my mead. As soon as its dry in the front and sweet in the back... its getting kegged! Cheers brother!
I too am allergic to patience. That being said, I've got a gallon batch of blackberry mead working right now. Just about time to bottle that junt. Nice video homies.
Feel free to send one out chris!
Could you do a video on a braggot? A mead/beer combo. Love the videos. Keep it up.
Great suggestion! Coming soon!
Mandatory beer chug. Damnit. I listen to you guys while I sleep. Quite often Mandatory Beer Chug wakes me up at 2 a.m. and all I can really do is get up and go hit the tap. Just trying to not be a poon. Thanks for the vids guys. Love ya.
Thx for the love CT!
Agree on the aging, although mead seems to be the product that is best served by it, as pure sugar fermentation is quite rough when fresh.
Gonna have to agree. Lost me on ignoring aging.
Thanks for the shirt shoutout! I'm now a permanat part of HomeBrew 4 Life!
H4L is a part of your support. THANK YOU!!!
Looks bomb, now I gotta check out Twisted Horn!
Lets cruise it on friday!
HOMEBREW 4 LIFE Hey we just may
Fell into this one from the link in your latest video. I will try to do a mead... someday... far far away. Cheers!
Please do!
This video is not only very informative, it is also very hilarious
Happy Holidays Chad!
Your rant about aging being a scam made me smile :) It has its uses, but the truth is, good brewing practices can drastically cut down on those supposed requirements to age mead for "at least a year" and other amateur nonsense you see tossed around homebrew forums. Twoje zdrowie!
For sure. The pulse of H4L is a quick diy channel. I remember watching an old mead video (that was awesome), but at the end they said “just age it for 9-12 months”. I immediately unfollowed
i love you ch!!!
Thx for watching our older stuff brajlord john! discord.gg/VjjzkUUK
Awesome video g.. y'all should do a California Oktoberfest style video lol
I'm into it! Cheers old homey!
watch some city steading for ideas lol, they seem to never run out of em.
love that channel cheers!

Homebrew is a cave, every man needs a cave, he needs a woman, a fire, a pot to put malt, water, hops and yeast.
And some good friends to share the beer with.
Television is the modern bonfire.
Wisdom!
So when you bottled this, it had a FG of 1.014. Do you do anything when you bottle it to kill the yeast, or stop fermentation? How do you prevent it from continuing fermentation to become more dry, or even from potentially creating bottle bombs?
1.014 may not be a problem if it's not changing. You need to check the FG over a period of time, say 1-2 weeks, and if it's not changing then that's (most likely) as low as it will go and you're safe to bottle. Otherwise you can add a couple things to kill the yeast, wait 24h and then bottle.
My mead is in day 3 of primary fermentation, should I swerl it around once a day? And should I remove the airlock when I do it?
Hi. Hope you figured it out by now, but, it's best to swirl a few times during the first week, because that's when most of the fermentation happens so you want to get rid of the gasses to help the yeast. I swirl ~24h after, and then 2-3 times over the next week. Some people swirl twice a day for the first week, some never! No need to remove airlock. After a few weeks you don't watch to touch it so it can start to clear. Cheers!
Love the evan williams whiskey reference. I made a video comparing evan williams white label 100 proof to knob creek 9 year 100 proof, they taste nearly identical. Difference is a half gallon of evan williams white label was $30, and a fifth of knob creek 9 year 100 proof was $34......
oh for sure. Whiskey is all branding. Cheers Kevin Fidler!
@@HOMEBREW4LIFE Very true, cheers!
Temecula Valley Honey company is the best , Mike is the Man
Yeah their homey came highly recommended! 🍻

Thanks EB!!
Skoll!
Wine is sweet to romans use to drink wine and use to be sweetened with. Honey so was part mead
Dan Noonan hell yeah cheers dan! Have a good weekend
respect 2 da troops!
keep the videos coming dude!
Aging mead, is about the meld of flavours. it also rounds off the alcohol. unlike whisky etc, it is a wine not a spirit, thus it does need to age that little bit, 6 months bulk min. because of mead sugars are not maltose, a wine yeast except champagne yeasts are better.
awesome feedback thank you BS
@@HOMEBREW4LIFE any time you want to brew with honey, give me a shout, been doing it for 30 yrs. it can be a bitch at times, but a lady always worth getting to know...lol
@@piratezippy you in san diego?
@@HOMEBREW4LIFE No, I am in the South Downs of old England, heres a 3+yr aged mead being tried at bottling time. ruclips.net/video/H21TaAA4KFk/видео.html
MBC 4 LIFE 🐐
I just tried doing this and it’s almost done fermenting. It kinda smells like sulfur a little. Do you think the smell will go away??
Yeah purge it out
@@HOMEBREW4LIFE so purge it out of the keg right?
Where can I get that "Death before $18 four packs" tshirt?

Im gonna do this tomorrow just waiting on the servomyces
I wouldn't use distilled water unless you knew what you were doing with beer salts. Cheers!

You guys rock, but I think I might need that check engine light video.... lmfao jk but seriously I’ve been debating wanting to mess with mead for more that a year, I just never wanted to dedicate that much space for that much time. Gonna have to give it a go now. Also tossing the sriracha in sanitizer gave me the thought of doing a spicy beer/pepper jelly cider kinda deal and thoughts of how it would turn out.
you got this dude! Just snag legit honey
It’s nice living in NorCal it’s all around me and it’s all decent prices bc it’s all local... also thanks for the replacement it should be here tomorrow!!
@@cq618 black XXL this time !
Super excited, wearing my first I got hella compliments and people saying yea f$&* that shit beers supposed to be cheap 😂🤣
@@cq618 i'm 35... i've seen it scale. I used to be pissed when stone had $10 six packs 15 years ago, then green flash started doing the 4 pack for even more! Now everybody thinks they can get away with it! #homebrewalways
🤣🍻🤘🏻
cheers braj!
how did the vikings sanitize...?
with the blood of their enemies?
SKÅL!
Cheers my dude!
Do a Sour IPA .
Duly noted!
HOMEBREW 4 LIFE hell yeah! They’ve been blowing up through Temecula and I’d love to brew one.
Ill jot it down!
HOMEBREW 4 LIFE also a quick crispy boi would be cool too. No one wants to wait 2 months for a lager
i got an idea for a video, make a beer with weed in it \m/ \m/
Im listening.....
@@HOMEBREW4LIFE i just wrote what i think would make a epic H4L video but it did not post, but again make a nice IPA with some kif infused maybe or some clear oil or something that wont make it taste like Chlorophyll maybe some CBD isolate to tame the THC so you can have a few , do the MBC like normal and a follow up 1-2 hours after the MBC to see how you are feeling and BOOM probably the best H4L video ever
Haha! Im sold
Haha! Im sold
@@HOMEBREW4LIFE WHOOP! WHOOP!WHOOP! WHOOP! MANDATORY WEED CHUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGG!
i can't afford that much honey,i would be broke for the month
Same!
Where's the Beowulf Viking scene with the warriors and the hot chicks in the mead hall defying the monstrous Grendel dude?! Mead is bad ass warriors brew meant for the worthy warrior and those who salute him, men who slay berserkers, demons and DRAGONS with swords and SPEARS!!! then party with kings, their courts and many, many beautiful maidens, come on man, WTF? You hit all the prep points to making a great mead in your vid, but completely missed the purpose of MEAD ITSELF, the elixir of the GODS! You have to revisit this video and set the scene strait dude, the infallible history of Warriors triumphs, Kings ransoms that were paid for courageous valor rendered to save all, the gratitude of all! and the Lovely maidens part played with their drink of choice, the drink of the Gods... (MEAD). For history's sake, make it again along with some history, and a good show...this sir could be a classic.
First!!!
LAST!!!
But why male models?
