At bottling. Adding fresh squeezed juice.

Thank you son. Is there no secondary fermentation?

No secondary fermentation on this. Just strained when completed. Read the first page explains the process.

Read the whole thing. I was asking about a secondary AKA a bright tank, I was asking about restarted fermentation when you introduce fermentable sugars

No restart of fermentation because it goes right in the fridge for storage.

If you are using the yeast balls they are dried yeast and amylase and usually a type of koji...and if there are live yeast available when you add fermentables during backsweetening/flavoring they will kick off a ferment. Yeast are yeast.

Except that you are immediately putting it in the fridge after flavoring... so no new fermentation because you are effectively cold crashing. Yeast are yeast

ive been watching this for the past few weeks and it looks flipping awesome.

Alright, now has anybody done an honest batch of this stuff yet? I'm talking a normal 6 gallon brewing bucket full of savory rice and malty Chinese balls?

I can't be fooling around with these piddly 1 gallon batches I got kids to feed and friends to, well, get drunk.

How many balls would one use for such an endeavor?

Oh, and how much wine should I expect to get from 6 gallons? Estimated, of course.

6 Gallons of rice!?!?!?!? Well this is a real rough estimation but I would say depending on rice used maybe 2 gallons. You do realize drinking this is less like a beer and more like a distilled spirit right?
