Materials & Notes

Third try, using self-sourced materials.

• 1 gallon carboy
• 2x Tetley Earl Grey
• D-47 yeast
  • Added to some 30 degree water before pouring into the must.
• Used less water this time compared to Batch #1, similar to 2 - nothing on walls.
• Dumped a bunch of nutrient in, eyeballed. (Fermaid K). We shouldn't add more.
• Brita filtered tap-water, filled to just below the raised letters.
• 1Kg BeeMaid pasteurized honey, unmeasured - trusted bottle.
• Air-lock filled with sanitizer
