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!!

This is outdated advice. You shouldn’t simmer raw honey. If chlorine is a concern then use sulfites or boil and cool the water separately.

If you want to use bentonite clay then add it at the beginning. It’s not effective to just add it in secondary and just leave it, it has to be agitated. That’s why people use it in primary fermentation now as this helps to get it moving.
