Let's see how this goes. Water and raw honey, 4:1, hoping for a wild yeast mead. First time, so fingers crossed.

I like wild ferments, but man are they unpredictable. When I find one that works I try to save some.

Sourdoughs tend to be more predictable for some reason, they seem to go right more often than not.

Good luck.

Thanks. I'm pretty used to unpredictable from fermenting foods, so not totally uncharted territory.
