theres 2 good ways to knock down mead sweetness that iknow of, non ez-cap and ez-cap1. use a carboy to ferment in and use merlot yeast,then let it sit for 6months.2. get a big pot and cookup 4 liters at a time (2 maywork but i've always done 4). disolve the honey inboiling water, i use 2.5 cups. add 2 maybe 3 tea bags(any type). i let the tea bags sit for a few minutesthen take them out. let it all cool to a good temp foradding yeast. pour it in your bottles, add the yeastand let it sit for 10-12 days (honey ferments slowerthan regular sugar). it will have a bit of a tea tastebut will not be as sweet. i like it, great summerdrink. give it a shot. if you come up with a diffrentidea, let me know, i like to expieriment.--- moartes73 wrote:>> Ive made lots of beer from other kits.
