Yeast Shootout Rules
Channel: Man Made Mead
Date: 2020-05-25

Here are the rules for the Yeast Shootouts. We are treating this like the wild west, which means that there is no special treatment. Each mead will be made with the same recipe, same amount of yeast nutrient and energizer and ferment at the same temperature. I am using a scoring sheet to judge each mead after they finish fermenting. I will come back to them 6+ months later and taste test them to see if they are any different.

Mead Recipe Used: 
1.7 pounds of Orange Blossom Honey
2/3 Gallon of Spring Water
2 Grams of each yeast
1/2 Teaspoon of Yeast Energizer
1/2 Teaspoon of Yeast Nutrient

Starting Gravity for all meads: 1.100 = 13.125% ABV possible

You will learn about the stats of each yeast in the video.

Mead Making is an art that people have enjoyed doing for years. It's something that intermediate to expert people can do and I'm somewhere in between. I've really enjoyed trying to use lots of different flavors in my meads like: Apple, Peach, Mango, Pear, Traditional, Elderberry, Blueberry, Blackberry, Maple Syrup, Apple Pie, Pie, Pumpkin Pie, Cherry, Chocolate, Bochets, Bochet, White Chocolate, Cilantro, Peaches, Melomels, Melomel, Acerglyn, Hydromel, Berries, Berry, Capsicumel, Peppers, Fenugreek. Some of my favorite meads have been the big blueberry mead, apple cinnamon mead, Bochet, OK Bochet, Raspberry Bochet, Mixed Berry Mead, Orange Cream mead, and Peppermint mead. I focus on how to make mead and how to make mead for beginners and hopefully anyone who wants to continue to grow in their mead making.
