000012 Home-brewed

Xiao Yifei took the flowers and plants out of the space and put them on the balcony, so that they could be the companions of other local flowers and plants that he had bought before. Bring the water to a boil and mix the milk powder with the puppy. The black nose is not a loss of the offspring of the earth dog, it is really easy to feed, drank some milk, and ate some Xiao Yifei's leftovers, so he lazily took a nap in the cardboard box.

Xiao Yifei was immersed in the great cause of translation, and before he knew it, the afternoon had passed. Li Qinglin opened the door at 6 o'clock with vegetables. As soon as he pushed the door in, a childish dog barking attracted his attention and woke up Xiao Yifei, who was working.

"Xiao Yifei, is this the puppy you bought? How did you come up with the idea of raising this thing? ”

"Isn't this boring, raising a black nose to relieve boredom."

"Black nose?"

"Yes, it's called Blacknose."

Li Qinglin teased the black nose while spitting Xiao Yifei's name: "You took such a broken name like this, and this is actually a soil dog, what are you doing with this?"

The black nose is a in the end, with a docile temperament, and it lies down and holds Li Qinglin's hand and begins to bite. Li Qinglin said in surprise: "Hey, this is a mother's? ”

"What's wrong with the mother?"

"Then what are you doing with a black nose, I thought it was a male dog's name."

"You can see that it is black near its nose, and it is very vivid to call it a black nose."

Li Qinglin couldn't spit out, so he could only say fiercely: "You are ruthless, I hope it will make shit everywhere and let the landlord increase your rent." ”

Hmph, how could it be that the room was full of shit. With such a large space in the Osiiris wood brand, the black nose can be pulled everywhere, and it can also add fertilizer to the grapes.

"No, you didn't go to work today?" Li Qinglin didn't look like he had just come back when he saw Xiao Yifei.

"I didn't say that yesterday? This month I have made up for it. ”

Li Qinglin's eyes were as big as silver dollars, and he couldn't believe his ears: "A month? Are you so happy? ”

"That is, you calculate, I was on a business trip for 2 months, how much vacation the company owes me, of course I should take a month off."

Li Qinglin didn't know what to say anymore, but when he saw that Xiao Yifei didn't cook, he complained again: "You don't even cook at home, you're too lazy." ”

When they shared the house, they agreed that one person would take turns to cook for a day, and yesterday Li Qinglin invited guests to eat outside, which was regarded as his cooking, and today it was Xiao Yifei's turn to cook.

Xiao Yifei hurriedly walked to the kitchen. "Right away, right away, right away."

Li Qinglin behind him kept saying: "Anyway, if you have a holiday, you will cook dinner this month." ”

Xiao Yifei replied: "Okay, you will cook next month." ”

Li Qinglin replied depressedly: "Okay, I'll do it next month, enjoy this month first." ”

After a pause, he happily said, "I only have three weeks of work next month, and I can do one less week." ”

Xiao Yifei responded with a middle finger. Fortunately, he had already made the ingredients into semi-finished products by noon, and the sound of spatulas soon came from the kitchen.

Li Qinglin gave up teasing the black nose, leaned against the kitchen door and asked, "Are you free on the weekend?" ”

"What's wrong?"

"The little duckling heard that you were back today, and she was inquiring about you."

Xiao Yifei's movements in his hands paused.

Li Qinglin continued to ask, "What's the matter with you?" ”

Speaking of the little duck, Xiao Yifei was also very conflicted in his heart.

Little Duck's real name is Xiao Ya, who graduated last year, and is also an employee of Li Qinglin's finance department. Xiao Ya is a native of Hunan Province, and she looks good, although she is not top-notch and beautiful, she is also handsome and has a very gentle temperament. The most rare thing is that although Xiao Ya is from Hunan Province, she is not a hot girl and is very gentle with Xiao Yifei. Of course, he knows that Xiao Ya is actually a hot girl in her heart, daring to love and hate, and a little stubborn.

The relationship between Xiao Yifei and Xiao Ya is somewhat complicated. A year ago, he had dinner with several of Li Qinglin's colleagues, and during the banquet, they coaxed Xiao Yifei and Xiao Ya to make a couple. Later, the two dated alone a few times, and Xiao Ya had a good feeling for Xiao Yifei. In the past year, the two of them have often talked on the phone, and they also go out to watch a movie on weekends, swim on the Bund or something. can be regarded as boyfriend and girlfriend, but not quite alike. Xiao Yifei also felt that Xiao Ya would definitely be a good wife and mother, and a good marriage partner, but when he really thought about getting married, Xiao Yifei felt that something was missing. But if Xiao Yifei had to say what was missing, he couldn't say it.

Li Qinglin saw that Xiao Yifei didn't speak, and continued: "Everyone gets together on the weekend. ”

Xiao Yifei thought about it, he had already made up his mind to resign and leave the magic capital, maybe it was time to make it clear.

"Okay, get together for the weekend."

In the evening, Xiao Yifei picked the grapes in the space vineyard and got some grape juice, but the black nose didn't eat it. It is said that the wine grapes are so sweet that the black nose should be able to drink them, but in the end, Xiao Yifei got some grape juice in his hands and let it lick some of it when he licked his hands while playing with the black nose.

As a result, after a while, the black nose lay on his stomach and refused to move, but looked at Xiao Yifei with pitiful eyes, and Xiao Yifei was very distressed. In the end, the black nose actually began to vomit, which frightened Xiao Yifei, could it be that the grapes in the space were poisonous? Will you also be poisoned if you let the grape juice get on your hands? Water is not toxic, grapes are toxic, what is wrong?

When I checked it on the Internet, I found out that it was not the grapes in the space that were wrong, but that the dogs could not eat grapes. There are some things in grapes that cannot be digested by dogs, which can easily cause kidney failure, and in severe cases, it can be life-threatening. Similarly, onions and chocolate should not be given to dogs.

Fortunately, when he got up the next day, Blacknose became lively again, but this also left a shadow on Blacknose's heart, and it was now in the meadows, woods, and marble squares in the space, and it no longer went to the vineyards. In addition, before playing with Xiao Yifei, he must come up and smell Xiao Yifei's hand first, otherwise he will definitely refuse to lick Xiao Yifei's hand.

Xiao Yifei went to the vegetable market to buy a chicken and forcibly poured it a cup of space grape juice. Next, Xiao Yifei devoted himself to translation work.

In the next few days of experiments, more than a dozen pots of flowers and plants on the balcony were divided into experimental groups and control groups to verify the effects of space water and grape juice on plants. Black nose verifies the effects of space water on animals; Roosters verify the effect of grape juice on animals. After a few days of testing, no matter what the test was, there was nothing abnormal. Xiao Yifei began to try out the things in the space by himself.

Xiao Yifei first tried boiling water with river water, and there was nothing abnormal for the time being. So he picked a few bunches of grapes, and according to the information he found, the sweetness of wine grapes should be higher than that of table grapes, but unfortunately the thick and astringent skin of wine grapes seriously affects the taste.

Looking at so many grapes in the space, it is not delicious to eat directly, how to dispose of so many grapes makes Xiao Yifei have a headache. Fortunately, Xiao Yifei quickly found a way to consume grapes, and that is to make wine.

Found a way to make your own wine online.

In fact, home-brewed wine is very simple, just buy table grapes in the market, and you don't need to go out of your way to find wine grapes. Once the diseased fruit has been removed, the stemmed and crushed by hand are then placed in a large glass jar to ferment.

The fermentation process is actually the process of converting sugar into alcohol using yeast. Home-brewed wine is made of natural yeast on grapes, so it is best not to wash grapes, because now grapes are basically bagged, and there are not many pesticide residues on them, and there is no big problem if they are not cleaned.

We Chinese are not used to dry red wine, that is, wine with little sugar, and prefer slightly sweet wine, so it is best to add some sucrose to ferment. The sweetening is also due to the fact that table grapes are not as sweet as wine grapes, which also increases the alcohol content of the wine.

There are strict rules on the market, that is, no sugar can be added, only the sugar of the grapes themselves can be used for fermentation, and no one cares whether you add sugar or not.

In addition, it is also important to note that the bottle mouth should not be sealed, otherwise the gas produced at the same time as the conversion of sugar into alcohol during fermentation will cause the bottle to be fried. However, if the fermentation is open, it will cause the bacteria in the air to destroy the wine, so it is best to seal the bottle with gauze, etc., which is breathable and does not allow external bacteria to interfere with the fermentation.

Once fermentation is complete, it is time to filter and bottle.

Filtration generally uses the siphon method, which puts the clarified wine into another container, and the filtered pomace, which still contains wine, can be filtered by pressing, clarified and bottled.

At this time, it is best to keep the wine at a low temperature, which will help to reduce the acidity of the wine and improve the taste.

As long as you don't add anything to home-brewed wine, it is generally not harmful, and you can drink it with confidence.

After looking at the steps and process, Xiao Yifei had an even more headache. Why the headache? In the online strategy, people's self-brewing is kilogram-level self-brewing, destemming is hand-picking, crushing is hand-pinching, and yeast uses the natural yeast on grapes.

But what about Xiao Yifei here? The vineyard in the space is a square with a side length of 60 meters, with an area of more than 5 acres, and although the grapes lie on the ground and the vines grow in a mess, you can still make 1 ton of grapes by picking and choosing. If he wants to let him operate this 1 ton of grapes by hand, it will really cost Xiao Yifei's life. How much wine is made from 1 ton of grapes, according to the wine yield rate of 5%, 1 bottle of wine is only 750 ml, and 1 ton of wine can make 700 bottles of wine, which is not something he can do in a short time.

Xiao Yifei was frightened by this number, which was completely beyond his current ability. He had completely lost the interest in tidying up the vineyard now, but he could not make up his mind if he didn't do anything and destroy the grapes completely.

However, he did not give up making his own wine, bought a bunch of bottles and cans from outside, and randomly selected a few catties of red grapes from the vineyard to conduct the first home-brewed wine experiment by using the wild yeast on the surface of the grapes without cleaning them.

Then he threw himself into translation, and when he got tired of translating, he continued to experiment with space water and home-brewed wine.
