got a makgeolli making set, comes with a little bag filled with the yeast, rice shit, basically everything needed to make an an-home cup of makgeolli that actually tastes pretty good.
took my 3 gallon fermenting bottle and threw in the orange pack with like 4 pounds of honey and letting it sit for a while to see what happens.
anyone wanna place bets i’m gonna fuck up real bad and somehow poison myself with a bad batch?
personally I’m hoping it comes out really nice with that hint of orange complimenting the wildflower honey I shoved in but if it’s faint enough I think I’ll just cut up some limes and throw it in the mix somewhere down the line
I didn’t even know what makgeolli was until I saw this, I mostly make pickles, kimchi, or kombucha. Have not messed with koji or alcohol or anything. If you’re worried about thoroughly sanitizing everything, I have to do the obligatory StarSan plug. If you find another no-rinse option that’s better lmk
makgeolli is pretty good. I’m uncultured swine tho so I’d rather do soju bombs
