Lots of people bring bottles, but most commercial, most sweet. But also some homebrewn maed which was less sweet but very good, made by someone who’d get 10kg honey batches from her bee keeping friend.</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>As for ‘tasting’ quantity you bring to congress – I was trying to figure out if you want to bring 1 bottle or 24. The drink tasting sessions (cidre, beer, whisky) usually take that amount of bottles if announced publicly as a tasting session, if there were many different flavours to taste etc. But just a small sip for anyone who signed up for your presentation/workshop is also fine</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If the hands on session would let everyone who joins leave with a small or big bottle they made themselves ready to drink 2 months later, that would be fine. That is not uncommon for our workshops like kimchi making.</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>So it’s really up to you to choose what you want to present or do at the foodhackingbase with mead, and the size of the event.
