BEERKEEPER Old Farmall Brewery Ultimate Mr. Beer Fan Registered: 01/14/10 Posts: 1985 Loc: nebraska	I read this and it had got me thinking that I should try this. So I got on the brewing horse again and did not have the exact things needed so I just kind of winged it. Orange Drink 6 cans of orange concentrate 2 gallons of water 5 Lbs of Honey (hold over from the mead) 1 package red star champagne yeast OG was 1.087, this might take awhile. _________________________ Old Farmall Brewery - Beer, Wine, and Smoked Meat products made in house by our legendary craftsmen.
