I live in SC where it is hot and our house is usually kept between 78 and 80 degrees for the summer. What yeast would you recommend for fermentation in these temps? We used the Lalvin 1122 yeast in the winter months but the instructions we got with our mead kit said to keep temps between 65-75 degrees. We are obviously new at this but want to try again for a sweeter mead this time. Suggestions? thanks!
Hey there. Keep up the awesome work spreading the mead love. We in SoCal have a huge dirth in restaurants but me and a few folks are trying to fan the flames here.

Hi. Great website. I’m relatively new to making mead but I am fast becoming passionate about it! Question, can the recipes you list on the site be halved? I’d like to experiment with some of them and make smaller batches at first.

Go for it Jason. They should turn out just as good!
Where and when can i purchase seasonal Maine Mead Works HoneyMaker Spiced Mead? Also is there some place in southern california. I read about ordering and the added shipping, but want to try before shipping a case.
