RE: Ancient Orange Mead Recipe
Oh, I can get honey, no problem! And yes, a good friend of mine brews his own IPA and gives it to me, so long as I return the glass bottles! He grows hops and has a beautiful hops trellis about 18' high, but he has 3 kids and his yard is maxed out with toys and playground equipment.😆 He wants me to build a similar setup on a larger scale, on my property - for free beer, of course..haha I'm going to start planning the rig once this season is wrapped up. I'm not even doing fall crops this year because I have to start prepping beds for next year already.
I'm likely to go the resourceful route, like you, but that stainless can is calling me..HAHA Maybe after I get one consumable batch under my belt, then we'll see. If I can make something worth drinking with sourced household items & improvising a bit then I might spend a little coin to do it a little better.
I figure food grade plastic is still going to be a notch above the jailhouse toilet wine, right?
