Thanks for taking the time to answer me.... and thanks to all for forgiving me for being lazy today.

This may have been answered already... Can I add the leftover mash to a new batch (I only have a few yeast balls left...)?
No it dose not work well, tried it several times.
I'm only using two balls per one gallon batch.
If you want more let me know.
I've had great success, it appears to have brewed correctly and tastes great. The only issue is that it's very thick and VERY sweet. I don't want to ruin what I have but was hoping for something a little more "drinkable" and less of a sipping drink.
My question is this: Should I ferment it again with a packet of Sake Yeast, treating what I have essentially as mash. It's very high in sugar content which leads me to believe that there's enough "food" in there for the yeast to eat, the issue would be if the alcohol content is too high to begin with.
Short of drinking my whole bottle, I have no idea how strong what I've made is.
What do you think of this? 5 days of fermentation in the dark at about 70 degrees.
Looks totally scary to me.

... Is there a difference between red yeast rice and cargo rice? ....
7 uncooked cups of sweet rice total in a 1 gal plastic jar. 6 small balls total. Now for the wait.
Following the wait you'll experience the frustration of straining it out followed by the realization that it's way too sweet and no one you know likes it.
Sorry.

5 days in, looking and smelling promising.
Hi guys,
Worked my way half through this thread which was awesome.
Very excited in making this recipe (thanks OP)
Just one question though that`s not totaly clear to me. How many grams of yeast to use per how many grams of dry rice? aprox..
I thought 20 gram (say two balls) yeast for 500 grams dry rice? Could you pleae answer in the metric scale since I`m from across the pond?
Thanks all, happy brewing
