Next, strain out the malt, and pour the liquid into containers with tight-fitting lids. After one more day in the refrigerator it will be lightly carbonated and ready to drink.
Last year, we learned the hard way that leftover mead should not be kept in the basement refrigerator for weeks, when we retrieved it, it was a little over-carbonated, and bubbled out all over the walls and ceiling!
I moved back to Australia after living in Finland for 2 1/2 years and was missing the Kotikalja, besides a good few other things. Thanks for posting this recipe, I am on my way to start brewing.
