  • great gift, good instructions
Style: Mead Making Kit
My husband and I have decided to do some home brewing this holiday season and after researching on Amazon this was the company I decided to go with for starter kits. This company looked like one of the best options for brewing kits and I really like that they are based in the USA. This is my husbands birthday gift this year and he's enjoying it very much so far. The kit has everything you need and easy to follow instructions. We started our brew a few days ago and so far so good. This has already been so much fun in our house. If any of my family seems interested in our mead, I'm going to buy another one of these kits for them because this just makes such a fantastic gift. The box is so well designed, descriptive, and has many cute details. The equipment itself is thick and high quality. The bottle is beautiful with a cute design in the glass. For the price you are getting such a great product. ... show more

  • Fantastic for Starters
Style: Mead Making Kit
This kit is fantastic when compared to some of it's cheaper competitor start kits. I know because I originally purchased the other cheaper kit, it was missing parts that were supposed to be included, and didn't come with a siphon. I wanted to try a few different types of local honey anyway so i ended up buying this CraftABrew starter kit just so i had two gallons to start with. The difference between the kits is night and day. This unit comes complete with detailed instructions, contact information for support, and almost everything you need (except the bottles for the finished product). In addition CraftABrew has a YouTube page with a informative, easy to follow video on how to brew mead using their kit. The age old adage, "you get what you pay for", is true when it comes to mead starter kits. Also, even if you got a different kit, I highly suggest watching the video from CraftABrew before you start your first batch. In addition "City Steading Brews" has some very informative videos on YouTube. ... show more

  • HUGE SUCCESS! FUN! GREAT FOR PARTY
Style: Mead Making Kit
This was my first time ever making anything remotely close to a fermented anything. I was very confused but the guide and video I watched online made it super easy to make. Reminded me when I learned how to make mozzarella. I started about over a month ago and aged mine for a total of 42 days. The recipe calls for 30 days but I had a party with some friends and let it age for longer. My biggest advice is be very cautious when doing the day 2 and day 5 steps. I accidentally added way too much day 2 packet and it bubbled over and caused a huge mess. They don't give instructions for calculating ABV, so pick up a hygrometer and get the starting measurement on day 1 and a final measurement on your bottling day to calculate the ABV. They also don't teach you how to siphon and provide a tube and staw and expect you to look online how to siphon. I recommend instead buying a separate siphon online that has a pump attached for easy and clean bottling. The taste: While I was expecting for this to taste super sweet and rich. It was quite the opposite. The yeast had eaten all of the sugars and thus produced a sour and bitter wine. The smell was of a rich beer and very pleasing. I think I loved the smell the most. It's not carbonated and it sat well in the gut. However after drinking a whole bottle I certainly was all giggles and hiccuping a lot. I felt like I was in a Tom and Jerry cartoon after they drink the wine. Could I drink a whole bottle again? No. But a small glass goes tremendously well with a well equipped meal. My friends also certainly approved of the final product. Except for a few who don't particularly enjoy fermented beverages. My ideas for next time is to do more research on different flavors. Adding things like orange peels or strawberries might spruce up this lovely drink. Final note: Watching videos online and doing research about making mead and it's history was certainly eye opening and very helpful. Remember to stay clean and sanitary for success! ... show more

  • Great for beginners, even better with some adjustments.
Style: Mead Making Kit
Craft-A-Brew’s Mead Making Kit is a DIY kit for making mead in a one-gallon carboy container. It contains everything needed to make mead, except for the honey required for fermentation. Because it includes reusable components and a guide for continuing to brew after the included ingredients are used, it’s meant to be an affordable entry into homebrewing as a hobby, retailing at $49.95. Having more knowledge about homebrewing now than when I started using this exact kit, I can safely say that it is useful for getting started but does not include everything you might need and could be improved with a few tweaks. My criteria for this evaluation are price, quality of components, and usability. Starting with price, the kit is relatively affordable at $49.95 and comes with a one-gallon glass carboy, two packets of nutrients, sanitizer, a racking cane, an airlock, and yeast. However, buying all these components separately can be cheaper and may total under $50. An argument could be made that the included guide to making mead justifies the cost, especially for beginners. The quality of the components is generally very good. I have since purchased carboys from other companies, but I still prefer the one included in this kit. The yeast and nutrients made a very tasty batch of mead, and the racking cane has held up well after several months. The only issue I had with quality was that the included airlock was made of cheap plastic and broke the first time I tried to insert it into the bung. I had to improvise a blowoff tube into a bowl of sanitizer to save my batch, which meant I also had to purchase more sanitizer and a new airlock. As for usability, this is where the kit falls a bit short. For beginners, the included racking cane is not ideal, as the manual siphoning process can be tricky to get right on the first attempt. I would have preferred an auto siphon, which is easy to find on Amazon for a low price. Additionally, I think the guide should include instructions for setting up a blowoff tube, as mead can get very foamy during the first few days of fermentation, and foam getting into the airlock can cause a mess. A blowoff tube would solve this issue. Finally, the yeast nutrient was clumpy and difficult to remove from the packet, even though the guide emphasizes the importance of adding it carefully. Overall, I think this is a very good product that, with some minor improvements like a better airlock and an auto siphon, could be well worth the price for new homebrew enthusiasts. I give the product 4 out of 5 stars and would absolutely recommend it to someone who is curious about the hobby but not yet fully committed. ... show more

  • Things can come broke or cracked but still is exactly what you ordered
Style: Mead Making Kit
So I've been dying to try to make mead for years and honestly even though it doesn't look like there is much to it, when you are new to it it seems like a lot. This kit does have everything you need, And the instructions are great and easy to follow. They even have a video on YouTube for those who need to see to do. My downside is the airlock came cracked. But I'll find a way to make it work for a few batches. Either way. Im still planning on buying more equipment, mainly the extra fermentation kit and the yeast nutrients. Thanks for making my dream hobby possible!! ... show more

  • Amazing company!
Style: Mead Making Kit
I received my kit promptly after ordering and I immediately began making my first batch! I was so excited, and had purchased all local ingredients. I was inserting my airlock when it snapped, I was beyond disappointed. I immediately reached out to the company, and I was so happy when they not only sent me a new airlock as well as more sanitizer and they even provided me with a temporary solution until the new lock arrived. I was able to save this batch of mead and I honestly could not be happier, the kit is amazing, but the company is even more amazing! Their quick response is the reason I will definitely be ordering more supplies, I could not recommend them enough!! ... show more
