This Almost Off Grid Deluxe Mead Starter Kit contains everything you need to get going making your first batch of mead. It includes a pack of Almost Off Grid top quality Mead Yeast and a hydrometer for measuring the alcohol content of your mead.

Mead Making Starter Kit Contents

• 1 gallon (5 litre) PET demijohn
• 1 screw cap for the demijohn with a bored hole, fitted with a pvc grommet to keep an airlock in place
• 1 Bubbler Airlock with cap
• 1 100g tub of VWP cleaner/steriliser
• 1 stick-on thermometer
• 1 pack of top quality Almost Off Grid Mead Yeast 
• 1 simple bottling syphon with tap and sediment trap for bottling
• 6 reusable corks with white rubber tops for bottling
• 2 kraft tags. We use these for making a note of the last step we took and dates when making your mead. We then tie the tag to the bucket handle
• A glass hydrometer transported in a plastic tube which doubles as a trial jar, and with hydrometer instructions included inside
• A basic mead recipe.

The Mead Recipe we include is Joe's Ancient Orange Mead (also known as JAO), posted by Joe Mattioli on Got Mead around 2003. It's a simple Mead Recipe many people make first when they are starting out.

Please note that Mead ingredients and bottles are not included.
