Went to the local fresh market the other day and ot 3 lbs for $12.99. Way too much. Called the uy direct and asked him about ettin #20. He asked what I needed it for and I explained I wanted to make mead. He was ABSOLUTELY pumped!
He said he would ive me a screamin deal on it. I then told him that Imade a Barleywine, already with it a couple of weeks ao that had a #1.5 in it, and I told him he could have some when it was ready. He was really taken by the fact that I used and want to use more of his honey. He said he tried to make mead one time, but it didnt turn out so well. He even said "racked" when he referred to transfer!
Anyways, he said he would straiht up ive me #40 lbs. of basswood and wildflower, if Imake him a batch, too!
Sounds ood to me!
He didnt even ive me a price quote, thats what I thouht was really cool.
I just fuckin love what a little bit of fermentation can brin about in people! He wants to have a beer and have me walk him throuh it, too, sop he can try it aain.
Looks like I need to et more carboys that can sit for months/years.
