Same ingredients as bread - devastatingly better results.
I'm thinking about going BIAB with an electrical set up of some sort, so I can do it in my kitchen. Ol Man Dick over here doesn't feel like sweating it out outside. Fortunately a lot of my 20 year old equipment is still functional and applicable (mainly my kegging gear).
Gear. Recipes. Technique. Whatcha got?
Edited to add: from here out Hexbear Homebrewers will be known as The HBHBs.
I used to brew mead, usually a plain mead in a 5 gallon carboy and a buncha fruity 1 gallon jugs. Just 2-4lb of honey per gallon, some good yeast, and some adjuncts (I like frozen juice cans) and it's good in a month or two. Usually don't even bottle it, just siphon it off into a clean jug.
Now I'm in a weird position though, because :im-vegan: pretty recently but still have most of a 60lb bucket of honey from before. I think I might just do one last big brew with it, or I might just donate it to the shelter. Either way I need to learn to make fruit wines or something because brewing is fun.
Yeah, fruit wines would let you reuse the gear for sure! Never done them myself. I stick purely in the beer/ cider realm.
I'd probably switch over to making cider or wine then.
