Brewing Sake in 2006
Anyone out there have the Sept/Oct 2004 edition of Zymurgy? Apparently Fred Eckhart had an article in there on how to homebrew Sake, and that was well before I joined the AHA. Also, any other advice on where to get info on brewing Sake? I've seen some on the web, but I'm still looking for printed material.
Have a great holiday, everyone!

I have brewed sake from Fred Eckhardt's kit & specifications.
It is a PAIN IN THE ARSE
Has to be ramped up & stirred twice daily...opening it up to airborne infecctions.
It is basically a porridge that slowly turns into alcohol as the koji breaks down the rice & the yeast ferment 'in situ'.
i quit fermenting, bottled, & pasteurized when it started to taste a bit lacto-sour.
Still...it tasted pretty good.
A good acadmic experiment done in 2001.
