Our most requested video by far is mead making and I have finally got it together to video the process. I plan to film more than one recipe but the most requested was Blackberry Mead. Okay, for the purists, once you use fruit it's a Melomel, not a mead (and a Metheglin with spices).

If you've always fancied trying to make mead, it's a little time consuming compared to country wines, but nothing onerous or complex.

This video covers an explanation of the fermentation process and requires no previous brewing knowledge. There's a downloadable recipe on our website to accompany the series
