One gallon braggot mead recipe

Hi,

I have just divided up my first 5 gallon BOMM mead into one gallon flavored meads. In the past I have made a few beers and I would like to make a one gallon braggot mead. I am hoping someone in the forum may have a one gallon recipe they would like to share. I am considering making a other 5 gallon mead that I also can divide up ...if this is even possible for a braggot.

Thanks again,

Bassin75

One pound of extract + one pound of honey + one gallon of water + one pack of yeast = braggot.
The last braggot that I made was a wheat braggot. I racked a gallon from a wheat beer into a separate carboy and added one pound of clover honey.

Hi rookie l-a,
Thank you for the reply. In fact I will be brewing a beer soon with specialty grains. Nice idea !!

Bassin75,
You can make any beer into a braggot.

Sneezles61,
What honey do you like?
