I diluted some of the makgeolli as before. 2 parts makgeolli to 1 part water and sweetened the same way as before. No changes here.

I still prefer it full strength.

I've also tried it diluted with 1/3 ginger ale or sprite to sweeten and cut the ABV. It's good this way too.

Thanks for posting your experience!

I have never homebrewed anything, but I love makgeolli and wanted to try it out. I just did a half recipe, though, because my jar only has capacity for that. Otherwise, I followed the recipe to the letter.

However, this morning I woke up and all I had was a big jar of moist rice with some residual liquid in the bottom. Any interpretation and help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Oops, double post.

You'll be fine. At the beginning, all the rice will float to the top with only a bit of liquid on the bottom. Stir this up twice a day with a sanitized spoon. As each day goes by, less and less of the rice will float. Just keep stirring twice a day. You'll know it's ready when most of the rice is at the bottom of the jar. That will take about 5 days.

Please post your results.
