Notes

Add honey to a pot. Do not add water. Gently boil the honey until it has turned dark and tastes caramelized. Add 1 gallon of water and zinc-fortified yeast, and blend into “scorched” honey. Add this hot honey and water mixture to 2 gallons of cold water in your primary fermenter. Add more cold water as needed to achieve 5 gallons total volume
