Started a mead about two hours ago, and tried out the Lalvin 71B-1122. It's already bubbling away! I've never had that happen with anything else I've ever fermented.
I started it in about 4 ounces of 80F water that was mixed with a small spoonful of honey, and let it bloom while I prepped everything else. When I went to grab the starter, it had tripled in size.
Guess my next addition for nutrients will be faster than normal!
