Notes: This is a sweet/dessert mead of Polish origin.
Trójniak: 1:2 (12-15%) - age 1-year min.
Dwójniak: 1:1 (15-18%) - age 2-year min. ****
Półtorak: 2:1 (15-18%) - age 3-year min.

Note the program has some quirks with step additions of fermentables. Total water & honey is 1.5 gallons (each). Primary will START at 2.3 gallons. Toggle the late addition fermentables to see what's happening.

Step additions:
Step 1: Starting SG target ~ 1.10 (with nutrients and aeration).
Step 2: Primary ferment until SG reduces to 1.07-1.08, add 2nd nutrient addition (Fermaid O), 2# honey, and aeration.
Step 3: Primary ferment for 1-2 days (SG back to 1.07-1.08). Add 2# honey and aerate.
Step 4: Primary fermenter until dry. Airlock at SG 1.03.
Step 5: Final honey addition (4#). This is not expected to ferment.
Secondary: Acid adjustment not expected to be necessary, but target is 3.2 (ish).

Bulk age in secondary in a 3-gallon carboy with airlock. Bottle in 6 months.

Fortifying notes (this is TBD and here for reference)
To increase abv to 20% for 3 gallons:
@15% add: 0.5 (1/2) gal 100 proof spirit
@16% add: 0.4 (2/5) gal 100 proof spirit
@17% add: 0.3 (1.5/5) gal 100 proof spirit
@18% add: 0.2 (1/5) gal 100 proof spirit
@19% add: 0.1 (0.5/5) gal 100 proof spirit

Notes: OK, maybe officially it is a Braggot since it uses honey, but who can resist a good pun?

Nice flavor after 1 month bottle conditioning.
Very very nice after one year of bottle conditioning.

Notes: Added Irish Moss at 15m.

Thermometer broke during wort chilling. Yeast wasn't hydrated and pitched 2.5 hours after boil. Didnt know exact temperature - probably 19-22 C.

Active fermentation 12-24 hours after pitching!

Dry hop 2.5 oz. of Cascade whole leaf hops for 8 days.

3/4 cup of corn sugar with 2 cups boiling water. Bottled on March 10, 2014. I guess the whole hope leafs absorbed a lot of the beer because I only had enough for 30 bottles, not the 40-46 I had planned for. Might not dry hop again if the aroma isn't worth it. Will find out during tasting. :)

First taste on March 23: tastes amazing, blew my expectations away! Surprisingly similar to Muskoka Mad Tom. They have the same specs though. The dry hopping of cascade really came through on the nose. Very fruity and citrusy nose. A very sweet and malty taste. Good carbonation. Maybe I am biased...

Side-by-side comparison with Mad Tom: Colour: MT is a lot lighter and clearer. Mine is relatively hazy. Head retention and size is pretty similar for both. Smell: MT has a more pungent hoppy nose. Mine is slightly more fruity. Taste: MT definitely has more punch to it - sharp hop taste. Mine is sweeter and laid-back. MT had distinct citrus notes. Grapefruit. Mine tastes more of darker fruits. Mouthfeel: MT is crisp with greater carbonation. Mine is smooth with delicate/light carbonation. Overall, it's hard to pick a winner in my biased opinion. I think MT nudges mine slightly. Think of slight changes to the recipe next time. Maybe not so dark colour with greater fruit emphasis on the nose and in the mouth.

Notes: (Notes from my Original Recipe, man has my knowledge grown since this first batch!)

I like to add the Lactose in the last 15 minutes of the boil. I've switched from adding the Vanilla to the boil to adding it into the primary Fermenter, in English, I retain a lot of the taste of Vanilla that from when I was adding to the boil. This should have a decent balance.
