Chapter 51, Making Maltose and Monthly Pass Support)
Five days passed in a flash!
Winemaking does not mean brewing at all times. The most important process is the fermentation process.
So on the first day, Covennas bought the rice and then fermented it.
That's right, it's rice.
In fact, the best foods for making wine are corn and sorghum, but he did not find these two crops in Canyon City. Perhaps there are no these two crops in this world.
There are many types of grains in Canyon City, including many miscellaneous grains that he had never seen before. However, he only knows rice and wheat, so he can only use these two kinds of grains to make wine.
Compared with wheat species, there are actually nearly ten wheat species in Canyon City, including several rice species.
However, he chose to use rice to make wine. Although the quality of rice brewing may not be as high as wheat, the rice has high starch content and low protein and fat content, which is conducive to slow fermentation at low temperatures. After brewing, the finished wine is purer.
Of course, various crops have their own advantages.
For example, people who often make wine know that sorghum produces fragrant wine, corn produces sweet wine, rice produces clean wine, glutinous rice produces mushy wine, and wheat produces impetuous wine.
In addition to fiddling with rice and fermentation on the first day, Covennas has not been idle these days, and has brought Teton and others to fiddling with equipment used to distille wine.
In order to distille wine equipment, Covenus directly became a carpenter.
However, he had seen wine making tools, and the system mall sold drawings, so he could only make a trick with me by relying on memory and photos.
...
Kasha Hotel's kitchen.
Covennas is fiddling with something else.
Teton and Cadia watched from the side. These days, their chiefs had nothing to do, and they didn't understand either. Every time they asked, Covennas would reply, you'll know in a few days.
"No, good, fermentation is over!" Covennas looked at the large wooden barrel one meter tall in front of him, and smiled with satisfaction after smelling the smell.
Teton and Cadia looked into the barrel with a strange smell.
They knew that the stuff in it was stirred with sprouted wheat with rice and sweet potatoes yesterday.
They also exclaimed that Covennas wasted, after all, the rice and sweet potatoes were so delicious that they were all taken into these two buckets by the Chief.
Covennas glanced at another wooden barrel again, showing a satisfied look.
That's right!
This is not wine.
But another thing, sugar, maltose.
As a boy from Long Village, Maltose is familiar with the familiar childhood sweets.
Regarding sugar, he also investigated in Canyon City. There was no white sugar, brown sugar, or the sugar he was familiar with. There was only one sugar, that is fructose and jam.
In fact, fructose is not sugar, it is a kind of dried fruit similar to persimmon flowers.
As for jam, it's easy to understand, the two worlds are similar.
Moreover, both fructose and jam are expensive, and there are only a few stores in the city that sell them.
Covennas asked the reason, mainly because it was difficult to store. It was transported from other places and the journey was long. If there was a little problem during the period, it would break down, so the price was high.
Moreover, ordinary people rarely afford it, and most of them are consumed by merchants.
In other words, maltose is also a very popular sugar product.
"Gawa, start burning the fire!"
"Cadia, go and take the burlap I bought!"
"yes!"
When the wild boar man Gava heard Covennas's words, he quickly sat in front of the earth stove and added firewood to burn the fire.
Cadia also quickly brought the burlap that was more than one meter long and wide.
Everyone can't understand.
Covennas took the linen, and he had tied a drop-off rack on the large iron pot, and helped the linen filter the fermented malt sweet potato juice.
The filtering began soon!
The two barrels of wort were about 100 kilograms. After nearly two hours, they were finally filtered.
The big iron pot was specially customized by Covennas to find blacksmiths in the city. Not to mention that one hundred pounds or two hundred pounds of juice can be filled.
"I'm so exhausted, Gawa, come and stir for a while!"
Although the walnut juice filters the residue, it is still very thick. If it is not stirred, the bottom of the pot may become muddy. After all, the pot is too big and the heat will be uneven before boiling.
However, after two hours of filtering, Covennas felt that his arms were not his.
As for those who helped Teton and Cadia to filter, they also looked tired.
Upon hearing this, the wild boar man Gava took the wooden rifle from Covennas's hand and began to stir.
Although the pot is very large, the heat in the earthen stove is even bigger. Soon the iron pot began to boil.
Seeing that Covennas was so excited, he quickly took the wood from Gava's hand and stirred it.
When you are boiling, it is also the most important step. The most feared thing is to paste the bottom. At this time, the most likely thing is to paste the bottom. Although the paste will not be scrapped, it will affect the overall quality of maltose.
"Cadia, add wood a little slower now!"
"yes!"
Teton and Garva stared at the bottom of the pot, and the orcs were a little surprised, because the juices in the pot, which were originally like rice soup, have now slowly turned dark red.
"Oh, what are you doing? Are you cooking sweet potatoes again?" At this moment, a soft and moving female voice appeared behind the two.
In the kitchen, except for Covennas concentrating on stirring malt sugar sauce, Cadia and the other two hurriedly greeted: "Miss Ajiv is here!"
After all, this werewolf beauty wants to be their chief’s wife. If she does, she will be the chief’s wife, so they dare not neglect.
In addition, Ajiv brought food and drinks every time these days, so it is said that eating people is short-speakable.
Ajiv nodded to the three of them, came to Covenus and smiled: "We don't welcome them either!!"
Covennas glanced at Ajiv and said lightly: "I need to welcome you. You may be more likely to go here than you go home."
This woman comes every day, and Covennas gets used to it.
Although he was a little nervous at first, after learning about this woman, Covennas had to admit that this woman was the type he liked.
Bold, tactful, smart and agile!
This is Covennas' standard for his wife, and Ajiv undoubtedly agrees very much.
Because Covennas is not a person who likes to take the initiative, or in other words, he is not a person who likes to talk about feelings slowly.
"Hehe...hehe...I'll be embarrassed to say that!" Ajiv covered his mouth and smiled.
"By the way, what are you doing?" Ajiv asked in confusion as he looked at Covennas's stirring pot.
"Make sugar!" Covennas said.
Ajiv is not from an ordinary person and must have known and eaten candy. He did not tell Cadia and the others that the main reason is that these guys must have never eaten fructose and jam, and probably don't even know what the candy is.
"sugar?"
"What does it mean? This is sugar? It looks like jam!" Ajiv said as he looked at the increasingly sticky liquid in the pot.
"You'll know if you wait a little longer." Covennas didn't explain too much.
The pot has started to be sticky, and it is estimated that it can be made in less than an hour.
"By the way, Kevin, my father is back, he wants to see you!" Suddenly, Ajiv said with a serious expression.
When Kovenas heard this, he stopped instantly when he stirred his hands, but Kovenas instantly realized that the most likely thing to be confused at this time.
"Your father?"
"What did he do when he sees me?" Covennas asked inexplicably, and cursed in his heart: This stinky woman is moving too fast.
