In this episode, John Aitchison visits the Mead House. John has been the past president, vice-president and Grand Hydrometer of the nation's oldest homebrew club, Maltose Falcons in Woodland Hills, California. A master mead maker, he's brewed everything from guajilla blossom honey from West Texas to lahua blossom honey from Hawaii. He shares a few tidbits from his past, and gives some great advice.
Shortcuts, tips, cleanup, things that make brewing easier, less messy and efficient. Jeff leads a discussion on some tips, including papering your counter tops so when the honey drips, all you have to do is throw away the paper!
