Everything on the farm is developing rapidly, and a truckload of pigs enters the farm every day. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

There is no difference between the raising of sows and ordinary commercial pigs, so there is no problem with the six workers hired by Liu Xiaoming.

In seven days, the entire farm was halfway closed.

Every day, the corn feed and bran are decreasing at a rate like running water, and Liu Xiaoming is a little frightened when he sees this.

Today, the first pot of wine is about to start steaming, that is, Liu Xiaoming's winery will have wine to drink today.

Seeing this, Liu Xiaoming was still a little excited. Therefore, when it was only more than three o'clock, Liu Xiaoming got up and came to the winery.

At this time, Xu Anguo, Xu Mancang, and Zhou Chaofeng inside were already sweating profusely.

When Liu Xiaoming came, Xu Anguo just finished the box. Unlike the previous days, after a few days of making a box, instead of continuing to cook the corn, the fermented corn in the fermented vat not far from the side was taken out and poured into the vat.

"Boss Liu is here, today is to come early, and then you will be the first to drink the first vat of wine."

When the words fell, Liu Xiaoming's face was also full of joy.

"Okay, let me taste the wine made by Master Xu today."

"Don't worry, make sure you won't be disappointed Boss Liu."

After saying that, he began to ask the two of them to add sake lees to the Zhuo jar.

After the corn is fermented in the fermentation vat, it is not possible to heat it all at once in the fermentation vat, but to take it slowly, as long as the steam does not leak out.

In this way, it can ensure that all the wine in each fermented corn comes out, which is also a small detail to improve the yield. Ordinary people don't know that this kind of thing only needs to be explored by people who have been dealing with it for many years.

Slowly, the smell of alcohol appeared in the room.

"Towards the wind, hurry up and pour a dustpan of sake lees into it."

Hearing this, Zhou Chaofeng hurriedly brought the dustpan installed next to the leaven vat and poured it in.

Waiting for the heat to come up over and over again, and going to the lees again and again.

After all the pouring was completed, more than half of the entire Zhuo cylinder had been loaded at this moment.

"Alright, let's start putting the lid on, and then connect the steam pipes."

Hearing this, Zhou Chaofeng and the others brought over a large white aluminum cover, on which there was a large air outlet. There's also a groove on it that looks like a wizard's hat.

After the lid was completed, a tube made of aluminum skin was brought in, and it was as thick as a thigh. At both ends, there is a 90-degree corner.

At this time, I saw Xu Anguo insert one end of the tube into the passage mouth above the lid, and the other end into the condensation cylinder that had long been fixed in the condensation pool.

After plugging it in, Xu Anguo also added water to it in two places where there were grooves. Liu Xiaoming stood next to Zhuo Tank, watching Xu Anguo's operation like a curious baby.

"Master Xu, this means that the wine is about to come out, right?"

"Yes, it's coming out right away. The steam enters the condensate through this pipe, and then passes through the cold water to turn into a liquid, which is the wine. ”

"Oh."

Seeing these for the first time, Liu Xiaoming was very surprised, and he had been waiting on the edge of Zhuo Tank.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a strong aroma of wine to appear inside the distillery. Subsequently, at the place of a water outlet below the condensate tank, a stream of clear liquid flowed out.

"It's out of the wine, it's amazing."

At this time, Liu Xiaoming thought that he needed to use a vat to hold the wine. Unexpectedly, Xu Anguo brought a basin.

"Master Xu, you won't use this thing to fill the bar, although it is the first time to brew, but the yield will not be so bad."

Hearing this, not only Xu Anguo laughed, but also Zhou Chaofeng and Xu Mancang next to him. Looking at the three laughing people, Liu Xiaoming was puzzled. In the end, it was Xu Mancang who helped explain.

"Boss Liu, you are a layman, and most people know it. Now, the wine that comes out is the worst, and there are all kinds of strange smells in it, so the wine at the moment will affect the taste of the wine. Generally speaking, as long as the sake is focused on taste, it is necessary to pack the first sake. ”

"That's it...."

When Liu Xiaoming saw this, he also felt ignorant.

"Then what should I do with this one, do you want to pour it out??"

"Of course not, just set it aside and seal it. The next day, when the second brew is made, just pour it in. ”

At the stall where he spoke, I saw Xu Anguo bring out the small half basin of head with wine. Then, he immediately put a large wine barrel next to it to the bottom, and then put a clean towel on top of the mouth of the wine barrel.

"What does this mean...."

Liu Xiaoming didn't understand why he put a towel.

"It's an insulating effect, just turned into a liquid wine, there will be some oil in it. In doing so, the oil is separated by a towel and acts as a filter. ”

Hearing this, Liu Xiaoming hurriedly looked over, and sure enough, he saw some oil stains in the wine on the towel.

"I didn't expect it to be like this."

At this time, the fragrance of the winery was permeated, and Liu Xiaoming took a deep breath. I just feel that there is no way to compare the bottled wine I used to have with this aroma.

"Master Xu, how many degrees of wine is there now?"

"Now the wine that has just come out is about 73 degrees, and now it is not drinkable, the degree is too high.

At this time, when you set it on fire, it will burn nothing. ”

As soon as he heard the seventy-third degree, Liu Xiaoming was also secretly surprised. This kind of degree, no matter who you are, you don't dare to drink more.

"Then after we pass all the wine, do we want to mix it with water?"

Liu Xiaoming's words were reasonable, but they were vetoed by Xu Anguo.

"Boss Liu, I think you're a very good person, I'll tell you today. This wine can't be mixed with water when it's brewed. Although, after mixing with water, the taste was indeed much better at that time.

However, this wine can not be put. Originally, wine tastes better the longer you leave it, but when you mix it with water, it will become sour.

It doesn't matter if you're selling it to people who drink a lot, there's nothing wrong with them drinking it all in a few days. But if you don't give it to those who are stored, you lose your conscience. ”

Hearing this, Liu Xiaoming nodded, it was so reasonable.

"Then how do we lower the degree, no one dares to drink such a high alcohol content."

"Don't worry, Boss Liu, you'll know later."

Hearing this, Liu Xiaoming continued to watch patiently. Grain wine, at 58 to 60 degrees, has the best taste.

However, in this way, production will fall and prices will increase.

If the price is too high, no one will buy it. As time slipped, there was already about half of the wine in this large jar that could hold about 1,000 catties.

I saw Xu Anguo bring two clean white bowls, and then punched out a mention of liquor in the wine jar and poured it in.

Then, pour it into two bowls.

"Boss Liu is optimistic, this is called Chonghua. When the wine is quickly poured into another bowl, there will be hops on it. If you look at it now, it's all big hops, which proves that the wine in the jar is above 58 degrees. ”

After speaking, Xu Anguo also handed the bowl in his hand to Liu Xiaoming to see. Indeed, it was covered with a large layer of hops.

"Now, Boss Liu should know how to lower the degree."

Hearing this, Liu Xiaoming is a fool if he doesn't understand. It turns out that the water used to steam sake in this pot is a good thing to reduce the degree. This kind of thing, in this line, is called tailwater.

The tail water is after the wine in the grain is basically gone. A kind of water that evaporates from the fire continues, and it is said that the water still has the smell of sake in it.

But it's just thin.

Tailwater is the favorite of many rural people. Why, sauerkraut is the best thing to use this water to soak in sauerkraut. No matter how long you soak it, the inside of this sauerkraut jar will not be moldy.

In the highly advanced wine, this kind of thing is added to it, although the taste will be a little worse at first. However, no matter how long the wine is left unattended, the taste will only get better and better, and it will not deteriorate even a little.

As the tail water enters, the alcohol content in the jar is getting lower and lower. After brewing the hops for the last time, Xu Anguo took away the wine.

Then, set aside in a pool to continue steaming. The already muddy water continues to flow out, which is steaming sake lees.

Only after most of the water in the steamed sake lees has been lost, the sake lees in the vat can be kept for the next time.

"Boss Liu, now is the time for you to take a sip and taste how it tastes....."
