Notes

Add the honey to the sanitised fermenter.
Add warm water (about 30C) to the fermenter and mix.
Pour the coriander seeds and yeast nutrients into a container and add almost boiling water (80C) to sterilise, dissolve and extract flavour. Add to fermenter.
Add orange juice to fermenter.
Add mead yeast and mix again.
Store in warm room (mine is 25-30C consistently).
Add a campden tablet to halt fermentation at appropriate sweetness. (I went for 1.015 as I didn't want it too dry - leaving an abv of 5%)
Age 2 months before bottling for low-medium carbonation or no carbonation if you wish as is traditional.

OG came out at 1.048. Had 25L though through mistake. Will ferment down to 1.014 before adding campden tablets to kill fermentation.

Campden tablets dont work. Purchased potassium benzoate.
