Adding honey

[youngbrewer]

hi all,

Could you add honey to a vrew like a table spoon of it??

To lager or cider

what are your thoughts???

You can add honey but you won't likely taste it in the end result and you must be sure to boil it to sanitize it. I am sure a tablespoon would have no effect on the taste of the final brew in any case, you will need to add a lot more but don't ask me how much. If you really want to brew with honey why not try making some Mead instead.

Of course I am of the opinion that if you want your beer to taste like honey maybe you don't really like beer in the first place .

I`ve just primed a couple of bottles of my latest brew with a spoonful of honey just for a tester. I wouldnt go the hole hog as it were on a whole batch unless I was sure it was exactly what I wanted.
A bit of experimentaton is a good thing surely in small doses in my mind.
