I bought yeast, and the gravity measuring tool, and some sanitizer, and the little airlock cork, and some honey, and a glass gallon jar.

If somebody has a document or PDF with childlike instructions for me to follow on how to do this I would be so greatful!

Maybe some recipe that goes through the whole process from start to drinking, fruit adding would add another layer of fun!

Helpful beginners advice would also be great!!

    In terms of advise, don’t bother simmering your honey as this will remove a lot of the flavour and buy some yeast nutrient if you want to drink it early. The nutrient will make your mead drinkable without having to age it for over a year, cause yeast needs nitrogen and unhappy yeast makes rocket fuel that needs to age out. When in doubt, age it out. Apart from that, just play around, use the GotMead calculator to estimate ABV and have fun.
