I was so drunk when I posted this... What I mean is, rack off the liquid and run it... The sediment is useless, except maybe to reuse as trub, that's what is like molasses... prolly 1/3 of the volume of the bucket is wasted in this way. I didn't get red in re gosh darned flux, just to...

I did it... I made red corn whisky... Half your bucket is junk, rack off the liquid, The rest is like molasses... Run it. Tasty. Still learning it.

Yeah all the Sake recipes were a buttload of work on a pretty strict shedule. Totally not my style.

In no particular order... I don't add any water, although the first batch I did add distilled. I don't soak and steam the rice, although I did the first time. I do rinse the rice very well before cooking it in my rice cooker. I do soak the yeast balls and ryr in warm water. For about 20 minutes...

I use the ones on the far right, alone or with monascus (red yeast rice). Good times.

Looks awesome. I save money on oak chips by buying white oak "pen blanks" on ebay, about ten bucks a dozen, the screwdrivers just for scale. You can toast them in the oven or char them on your grill.

Ryr/yballs rice wine yeilded 5 ltrs, just over a gallon. It's good though, sweeter and less dry than my last batch, still tastes boozy, guesstimate 12-13%. Bringing a jar to the neighbors for the Bruins game, and got more rice cooking, going to start it back up again asap. ***Edit - The Jar was...

choong I think you're talking about nuruk and magkeoli, but I don't have any in any buckets right now. I'm scared to make it because everybody says it's an "acquired taste", and I don't want to do the work then hate it. I will eventually, no doubt.... Today is day 21 on my ryr/yeastballs batch...

Mmmmm.... Bananna....... Looks great. Jealous!

I'll drink the 4ell out of that cloudy $hit. Looks awesome. I've been wanting to play around with a bananna based booze.

Big Weekend coming up! Off Sat and Sunday, sat is 21 days on the ryr/yeastballs rice wine. Two 5 gallon batches of Gerber ready one @22% w/dady and one @14% Hodgsons Mills, and I'm going to open the ryr/masa bucket again, maybe stir it, maybe even run it. How's you guys stuff coming along?

I need a breathalyzer for my laptop :drunk:

Jocasta: What is it like? What annoys the exile? Polyneices: One thing most of all; he cannot speak his mind. Jocasta: This is a slave's lot you speak of, not to say what one thinks. Polyneices: The follies of the rulers must be borne. Jocasta: That too is painful, to join in the folly...

Euripides, you pay for these.

Uranus = Heaven. Nelson Voice - HaaaaHa!

She is mounted on her chariot, the queen of sorrow and sighing, and is goading on her steeds, as if for outrage, the Gorgon child of Night, with a hundred hissing serpent-heads, Madness of the flashing eyes." (The Theban Elders (chorus) in Euripides' The Madness of Heracles 880). "Lyssa: Of...

Sweet Sweet Lyssa.... Always with me, but never truly mine... She will NOT be told what to do, or how to act... I can only go along, and get the sweetness she allows to me. Can't make her go faster.... she refuses. Sitting with her takes hours and hours, no way around it. You still want to sit...

I have been using that same rice. It's the Balls, shorter grain = shorter carb chains.

I'm glad you suggested leaving out the DADY. It seems to be working out really well. Seriously dude..... Boiling! Like slow motion boiling, but still. Props for that, and for the whole nixtamilization clue, that was your find too.

Only 3 days in and I couldn't help myself, I just had to look... the masa/ryr/yeastballs mix is actually making progress! It's literally boiling with bubbles, and judging from the pigment the ryr is propagating... The liquid seems thinner on top, but I didn't stir it. For the only the fifth or...
