Re: [E-Z-Caps] Re: Cyser

Actually, a little of both. Honey takes longer to ferment than sugar and it just seems to taste a lot better the longer it sits. Most mead recipes will tell you the same thing, the longer it ages the better it is. A really good web site for mead/honey wine is www.gotmead.com, they have great information on cysers, melomels, etc. I hope this helps! Good luck and happy brewing!

Has the honey really delayed the fermentation process so much that it
takes one month to produce the wine, or do you let it sit for that
long because you want the flavors to blend more?

ez caps and one without. The one without will take about 6 months to
age right. The ez caps will be really good in about 1 month. Thanks
for the email! Hope it works out for you too.
