Much like the mead session from Mead 2014.04, we had a bunch of people who made their own 1 gallon batches. I didn't actually record anything during the event, so now I'm going to try and get it all in from memory (yeah right).

Brewing

Each participant had slightly different techniques for their brew. I didn't actually keep track of what everyone was doing for their recipes, so I'm just going to record my own. Other people can add to this if they want to.
