Mead Making Equipment Kit - 5 Gallons

This Mead Making Equipment Kit is a two-stage fermentation equipment kit designed to work with 5 gallon mead recipes.

Mead, an ancient beverage known as "honey wine," has a rich history dating back thousands of years. Originating in cultures worldwide, mead held cultural significance in Norse mythology and medieval Europe. Despite a decline in popularity, it has experienced a modern resurgence in the craft beverage movement. Today, mead-makers blend honey with various ingredients, offering a diverse range of flavours that connect both to ancient traditions and contemporary palates.

There are many categories within the rich mead tradition including sparkling and still mead, sweet and dry mead, sac mead and hydromel (strong and weak), melomel (fruit mead), braggot (beer/mead hybrid), metheglin (spiced mead), cyser (apple cider mead), and brochet (burnt honey mead).

With the equipment in this kit, the book The Compleat Meadmaker in hand, and the recipes and recipe kits on our website, you will be part of the mead renaissance.
