Mead yeast is like a dollar fifty, use that instead of bread yeast. Bread yeast is made for bread, it cannot survive the higher alcohol contents of what you are brewing. That's why it's used for bread, not beer, wine, or mead, and why those beverages all have their own yeasts.

Don't fill the jug that much, it will just overflow when the yeast start producing CO2. I had to clean up several times the first time I tried.
