I wouldn't call that a 'modern' home brew. There are a few issues from a quick view:

  • Sanitize everything
  • take OG readings
  • Don't use wood. Stainless or plastic are better *<=edit for clarity *
  • Sanitize everything
  • stagger the nutrients if you can
  • 4 days on the fruit may not enough
  • take SG readings
  • use a syphon
  • Sanitize everything
  • don't use muslin
  • vodka is better than water in the airlock
  • take FG readings
  • use an auto-syphon - don't put your dirty lips all over the syphon
  • Sanitize everything

One last point that I didn't mention above but is very important, Sanitize Everything

PS I make meads and one of my favorite is a Feijoa mead

Feijoa is one of my fav fruits, so I can only imagine this is good. Thanks for sharing.
