I am starting this blog to keep track to what it takes to start a commercial meadery.

Many questions are going through my mind.

What size equipment should I start with?

How many gallons of each batch should I make?

Do I splurge on a lease for a place, or try and do it in my garage or basement?

How much money will it take?

What is the licensing procedure like, and how long will it take?


I need to take these one question at a time:

Stainless steal containers are very expensive (for a startup).

Would these work?

These look what I have seen used by other places, and are reasonable in cost.
