Got bored today so.....

[Pezza]

..... I made a gallon of mead

Nice and simple to make.
3lb of honey dissolved thoroughly into three quarters of a gallon of water.
Pop a sliced orange and some sultanas into the demijohn.
Pour in the honey water.
Add yeast and shake vigorously for 5 mines to well oxygenate the water.
Top up with a little more water.
Stuff in a bung and air lock.
Shake vigorously twice a day for the first 3 days to give the yeast plenty of oxygen.
Leave alone for 6-8 months!

Also knocked up 5 gallons of Porter Ale

Should be ready in a month
