Short Mead can be drinkable in a month, but it has to be kept refrigerated when it's done lest it become a bottle bomb. One popular recipe is posted at http://www.gotmead.com/index.php?option=...&Itemid=459

The gotmead.com site in general has a lot of info on mead if you want to go researching.

I got an update, we went to the uncles house for some beer and conversation, so I checked on the Mead. It has dropped almost perfectly clear without sparkoloid or any other additives. bad part of it is that it was still bubbling at a bubble every 16 seconds. long time till we rack

Stole the graphic from the web whistle and used PowerPoint then just save the slide as a jpeg so it is easier to use from there.
