Home brew

Any other wine makers around anywhere?? After a year of inactivity I decided to get back with it. I just started fermentation of 4 gallon of blackberries. I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination but always like to hear new ideas and techniques as well as what has worked and not worked.

I do it but the easy way with kits. The only stuff I make traditionally is mead.

mead, now there is something I've never attempted nor tried.

Is it as strong as buying in the store

I've been brewing all grain for many years now, I also do some cider, a little wine, and lots of mead.

I'm serving a pale ale and a Hoegaarden style witbeir from the kegs right now and there's an Oktoberfest beer lagering in the basement fridge that'll be ready in a month or so.
I have five gallons of Reisling fermenting in my wine carboy that will probably get bottled in October and last weekend I just bottled and corked two five gallon batches of mead, one a dry sparkling wildflower nectar and the other a sweet sack mead with 18 pounds of orange blossom honey.

Apple season is coming soon so I'll probably be starting a couple of ciders over the next several months.
