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 just started mead brewing about 6ish months ago it seemed easier than brewing beer and wine just didn't have the same appeal. Plus I just really needed a non-tech hobby. 😅

So far LOVING it! My brews have been fermenting super quick (usually about a week but sometimes 2) and have been more than drinkable after a month. :)
