How many of you make mead? I made my last small batch for Thanksgiving and I've just gotten caught up with life and other hobbies and forgot it existed until I saw this community.

I've made 3 batches of mead so far. A sweet, a semi-sweet and a dry. My favourite by far was the semi-sweet, and it only took about a month to finish clear and be drinkable!

Sounds lovely. I'm great at not writing down what I did so my really fantastic one I haven't been able to recreate.
