2025 RationalWiki 'Oregon Plan' Fundraiser

There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.
We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with PayPal Logo.png!

Recipe talk:How to make Mead

From RationalWiki

Two questions (I had three, but then I Yahoo'd "demijohn" and answered one of them). When you say "pan" do you mean "pot?" I presume this is an English/English translation thing. Also, what kind of acid do you generally use to cut down on the sweetness? Lurker 12:04, 20 November 2007 (EST)

Yeah, I'd hazard that "pot" and "pan" mean generally the same thing in this context. A big, metal high walled metal container in which you might make soup, fish stew or chili. As for acid, generally citric acid is fine, other brewing supply places sell tartaric acid which works too. --Jeeves 12:26, 20 November 2007 (EST)
Ah, I didn't realize one could buy the acid by itself; I figured you'd have to use something acidic. I'm obviously a bit of a newbie at home brewing! Lurker 13:30, 20 November 2007 (EST)
Anyone tried this? I have two brewing kegs I thought I might give this ago. - User 22:11, 22 April 2009 (EDT)

yield?[edit]

If you have to mention 2 kg of honey, perhaps it should mention how much is made from 2 kg of honey? [[User:K61824|]][[User_talk:K61824|]] 16:34, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
