Today we're talking about the 8 Mead Mistakes that most all beginner mead makers make. You should learn about these things and avoid them at all cost! Mead making is an art. Yes you can absolutely just start throwing things randomly into a container and let it go - but you will find that repeating that product/making it it's best is going to be far more difficult than it should be! You should have a little method to your madness when it comes to mead making.

3.) Balancing a Brew (Tannin, Acid & Sweetness)
