I usually make mead in the winters and it takes 40 days to complete the fermentation process. It's much slower than fermenting sugar. But I would suggest to degas the fermenting liquid if you want to minimize the yeast odour. Also use little raisins to make mead stronger. In three months, this mead is ready to drink and can be aged for better flavour and transparency.
@Mecanic Z1 just few raisins to supply organic nutrients for the yeast. Add around 10 raisins chopped into pieces per litre. If you add more, it would alter flavour and taste of the mead. Let the fermentation stop and then only transfer the contents to new jar after removing the raisins and yeast sediments. It takes 3-4 months to clear the mead or any wine to be drinkable. So do not hurry. The mead attains maturity at 9 months though you can drink it after just 3 months.
@@p.saiteja285 definitely I can help you in mead making. Take 1kg pure unrefined honey and 2 litres of boiled and cooled water. Mix them while the water is warm (warm enough to take bath). This will speed up the dissolving process. You can take 1:3 ratio too. Add few golden raisins for natural honey coloured mead, black raisins for little darker mead. Add the juice of a small lemon to adjust the pH to make the right environment for the yeast to work efficiently. You can also add little bit of apple juice about 50ml. So together (raisins, lemon and apple) works as acid blend, fully organic alternative to expensive chemical additive which is available at Amazon. This is my invented secret formula which nobody thought of. It's also verified practically by me. Now prepare the yeast by dissolving a teaspoon of it in little warm water. Add to the honey water mixture and shake vigorously. Keep it under airlock and stir for two minutes twice a day for 7-10 days. Then you can degas your mead once in a while. Temperature should be around 22-25 degree C for best results. After a month of fermentation, keep it undisturbed for another month in dark place. In fact, this jar should be kept at dark place all the time, no sunlight should fall on it. Siphon it after completion of 2 months from start. Again siphon next month to get clearest mead. You can also bottle the mead during second or third racking.
Its called madhvik in ayurveda....im ayurveda student thanks me later.....sura...varuni...madhvik...madya..draksha asva..all recpies found in ayurvedic text
Mardhvika is from grapes. Madhavasava is from Honey. And that's not it because it is fermented. All fermented wines (Ayurvedic) are classified under Arista. There were multiple wine processes including fermentation. Most of them are lost.
Please inform your subscribers that do not attempt this making a wine with honey and warm water could possibly dangerous to human body if the proportion and quality varies
@The Daaru TV i don't think your drink has 18%,only if you have a super sweet honey with more sugar,speacial yeast for beer or wine not baking yeast and how much yeast you use,in 30 days you can make maybe 6,3% and you interuppted the fermentacion process when you switch the bottels,a good mead it has to stay minimum 2 months until fermentation stops and another 1 month to chill.What you have there is just water with honey and some alcohol, like a soft beer.
I agree that it’s not it’s not nearly 18%, but he probably reached 10-12% since he used the regular amount of honey for a 14% brew. He interrupted fermentation but only for probably 30 minutes or so. And if he used bread yeast it can reach up to 13% if he was lucky. I’m guessing with the small amounts he’s working with that he got 10%, if it was a little sweet still.
I want to try this but I think we should have some more information did you burp the gas out frequently how many times a day or week did you keep the bottle out of the sun and a warm area and a cool area I think we need some more information please and obviously an ancient times they didn't have airlocks can I make this without an air lock. As the gas is built I'm guessing you must let them out you have to burp it once in awhile you're not giving us all the information my friend
Alcohol fermented from honey is called madhava in sanskrit which is written in ancient texts like ashtang sangrah 3rd chapter in vasanta rutu / spring season which is best time to drink it.
Only one company in Maharashtra called moonshine meadery. But they won't give strong mead as per our requirement and price is high. You can make it at very cheap rate at home. Say 100 rupees a litre if not more
Yes...If you don't have an airlock, DO that. (The whole purpose of an airlock is to avoid air pressure from from building inside the bottle.) Hope this helps somebody ;)
@@SKhandleYT yes you can in olden days they used to use silk ot cotton but better results if you put an airlock or else a balloon and poke it with holes for an airlock substitute
Hello Ratan, I tried this and the mead is murky/turbid... Also, the dead yeast hasn't settled down. Please give a solution... P.s: I used a regular plastic bottle and not a glass one
---Help Requested--- I brewed Cranberry wine about a month ago with ' real' brand cranberry juice and regular yeast. Brewed it in dark atmosphere with proper airlock facility, after a week i filtered the yeast out of the brew via muslin cloth. For few days i still saw bubbles rising from the bottom in my brew, it's been a month now and i haven't consumed even a sip of it. Today i saw some kind of weird thing at the bottom like you get layer on milk (can't explain in words) i took a sip and it kinda tastes harder than before. Is it just aging or has the brew been ruined, now i wanna consume the wine but don't know whether it'll get me into hospital or high???
Lol its called Lees it's the result of fermentation. Syphon your alcohol out leaveing the residue after fermentation is finished age and its good to go
I think the yeast have to be a small amount if I m not wrong. Your sour honey wine can be used to replace the yeast, it will work fine. You can use one full glass. This drink is very common in Ethiopia & Eritrea. We use yeast only for starter if we don’t have honey wine already made @home. once we make 1st batch, we no longer use yeast instead we keep using from 1st batch & so on…
If any of your parents have science background especially biology or knows what yeasts are used for, pretty sure they would catch you. I have made plenty of mead variants but still I hide the jars in carton and tuck away into secured place so that my mom doesn't find out. Luckily I don't live in my hometown and mom visits me once a year.
No way. Even if it's present, it will be in trace amounts say mg/litre. It won't harm you until you consume atleast 10gm of methanol. For such quantity of methanol, you have to drink more than 20 litres of wine/mead which is not possible.
You need to remove the yeast or your stomach may hurt next morning along with diarrhea. Also yeasty drink tastes worst. So let the yeasts settle down before drinking. Rack 2-3 times till the beverage gets clear like glass. Keep it for atleast 3 months if you want to enjoy the taste of your own homemade mead.

It's sounds so simple. I think I'm going to give it a try. Thank you
I doubt you've used a baker's yeast and got to 18% ABV. What did you use?
Yes. You'll never know the actual values unless one uses a hydrometer or another measuring device.
description: The alcoholic content ranges from about 3.5% ABV to more than 18%.
I tried this at home and it turned out really well! Thanks for this video =D
Doesnt use hydrometer. Claims its 18%. For all I know it didnt even ferment. Amateur.

Can you make mead with high alcoohl with the Wine making kit from company called GUTbasket?
After the fermentation ends, would it be possible to pressure can the drink in glass jars?
