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
If there’s a layer of fuzz on the top… just scoop it off, you’ll be fine (probably).
So far, we’ve only made wines out on the farm and the worst thing that’s happened was trying a different recipe that asked for a ridiculously high amount of sugar, forgetting about the amount of sugar that was added, pouring off the results in 16 oz bottles, forgetting to burp them while they sat on a kitchen counter for 6 months, and them going off like grenade one night.
Literally had glass shards embedded in cabinets and a decent chunk was blown across the kitchen and broke a window.
Lmao holy shit
