  Chapter 469 469. Soybean straw and wine making

  As for the dried soybean straw...

  Song Sancheng raised his voice: "Tan Tan, there are quite a lot of bean stalks here. Why don't you ask Old Man Li if his cows are eaten?"

   If he eats it, wait two days to pull two baskets for him, but the food is hard to eat, so he has to find a way to break it at home before feeding it to the cows.

  Now there is only one cow in the whole village, and it is very old. Song Tan responded directly:

   "Don't ask, when the time comes, the beans will be harvested, and the rest will be given to him."

   This stuff is quite high in nutrients, so it is not a problem to feed cattle over the winter. Besides, that's it, how much fertilizer can I prepare? There are things that can be used as fertilizer.

  Let’s give it all to the old scalper.

  After all, the temperature here drops in November, and the temperature starts to rise slowly until March next year. In winter, there are not many grass leaves to eat.

  …

   Waiting until the soybeans were almost processed, Seventh Cousin estimated the time, and called Qiao Qiao again at this moment:

   "We're going to start brewing again later, are you still broadcasting live?"

   Qiao Qiao looked at him vigilantly: "Then can we finish brewing today?"

"able."

   Seventh Cousin can still guarantee this.

  Jojo finally felt relieved, and then turned on the live broadcast without saying a word—

  【What did I see? The anchor has been playing chicken blood these two days! 】

  【That is to say, I am too diligent, and I am a little uncomfortable. 】

  【Can winemaking end today? I can't bear to subdivide this. 】

  【Come on, come on, what a high frequency of live broadcasts! 】

  …

   At this time, Qiao Qiao was already standing in front of yesterday's big barrel with a serious face:

   "Okay, our sorghum has soaked—"

  He looked at the time: "It's been soaking for 20 hours. The seventh cousin said that the weather is hot, so we don't need to soak for so long. Now let's open the lid—"

   It took some effort to fully open the airtight lid, and a gust of wet steam hit the face. The Seventh Cousin reached in to grab a handful of sorghum, saw the sorghum cooked and blooming, and asked Qiao Qiao to pinch it with his fingers:

   "Do you feel it? It will rot when you pinch it. At this time, it can be soaked. If it doesn't work, you have to keep soaking it."

   "The temperature is low in winter, and it gets cold quickly. You have to soak for 24 hours—come, boil water!"

  Qiaoqiao quickly put the phone aside, and once again entered the state of forgetfulness. At this moment, he put the huge steamer on the stove, and then took out the soaked sorghum and put it all in.

   "Wait until the water rolls into the atmosphere..."

   Seventh Cousin suddenly got stuck.

After a while, he said again: "It was very difficult for us to buy a watch in the past. It was all based on estimation. Before I estimated the water temperature and used a thermometer to measure it, I told you... This time, when I decide, I will do whatever Just watch the time and write it down.”

  Jojo nodded, and the live broadcast room became lively again:

【understood. From the experience of the master]

  【I just said last time, why was the master so strict, and he even took a thermometer to check it from time to time...】

  【Technology affects the play of experience! 】

  【The matter of brewing wine is really a hair's breadth, a thousand miles away. 】

  【There were no such things in ancient times, and people could still make good wine. 】

  【I dare not deny that the wine is good, but the degree must not be high. After all, distillation is still a big problem...】

  The barrage chat is in full swing.

   At this time, Qiao Qiao had been staring at the watch for a long time, until the seventh cousin reckoned: "Okay."

  He just looked at the time, and then announced with a serious face: "Kids, are you watching the time? You have to steam for 30 minutes after getting up to the atmosphere."

"By the way," the Seventh Cousin added: "This time we steamed a lot in one breath, and the pot is big, so it only takes half an hour. If you just play around at home and cook a little, it will probably take about 15 minutes—come on, Take the sorghum down, blow the water in the steamer with a fan to cool it down, and measure it when I say it's about the same..."

   This process is extremely cumbersome, but Qiao Qiao learns it extremely meticulously, and doesn't feel impatient at all.

  After Seventh Cousin said yes, he looked at the thermometer: "Kids, remember, the water temperature is 85 degrees!"

   Immediately after, pour the water back into the sorghum and stir evenly, re-cover the lid, and seal it for 15 minutes.

  The next step is to re-steam and let it cool...

   In the middle, the Seventh Cousin also greeted: "Qiao Qiao, bring that rice husk in a pot and wash it clean—370 catties of sorghum, you can get 37 catties of rice husks."

   Immediately afterwards, mix the koji, mix the koji again, collect the pile and saccharify, cover the rice husk...

   Waiting until the two of them finished their work dripping with sweat, Seventh Cousin finally sighed:

   "Okay, wait for a long time, when you smell a sweet smell and grow white hairy bacteria, you can get it out and put it in the cellar."

   At this time, the barrage in the live broadcast room has become much less visible to the naked eye.

  Zhang Yanping took the opportunity to take a look and was taken aback, thinking that Qiao Qiao didn't keep fans this time?

   But look at the number of viewers again—wrong, why not decrease but increase?

   After a long time, a bullet screen finally swayed past:

  【Are the anchors all busy? (⊙o⊙) Wow, I actually fell asleep! 】

  【Ah, I slept so full! 】

  【Huh, it's over after waking up? 】

  【I wouldn’t have woken up if it wasn’t for the loud churning noise at the end...】

  【This is so sleepy, I want to keep this in my collection and play it back when I have insomnia. 】

  Zhang Yanping: …

   Just... How should I put it, the process may be different from what I imagined, but the result seems to be quite different.

   After closing the live broadcast room, he came over curiously:

   "Seventh Cousin, can I drink this tomorrow?"

   "What a beautiful thing to think about." The Seventh Cousin smiled and said, "Tomorrow the fragrance will be produced, and then the distiller's grains will be mixed well. Looking back, you can see whether it should be put in barrels or directly dug in a cellar, and it will take 20 to 30 days to ferment."

  Song Tan also came over, looked curiously at the pile of rice husks and sorghum in front of him, and without hesitation:

   "It's all made by local methods. Naturally, we should dig a cellar - didn't we buy the pottery jar? Tomorrow, we will clean it up and bury it in the ditch of the back garden as a cellar."

"Okay." Seventh Cousin looked at the pile of wine lees: "We'll see the situation tomorrow. If it tastes sweet, it proves that the wine is ready. If it smells like wine, it's overdone. It probably won't taste good. You don’t have to bother cleaning up the cellar.”

Song Tan glanced at him, thinking that if you always say this, don't put on such a confident look, and don't clean up all the more than 300 catties of sorghum in one breath... the credibility of these words Also higher.

   If I’m really not sure, all the sorghum this year is here, and they are the only ones drinking at home, can the seventh cousin be willing to do it all in one go?

At this time, the Seventh Cousin walked around the yard with his hands behind his back, regardless of the scorching sun, still unable to hold back the anticipation and joy in his heart, he hurriedly asked again: "Qiao Qiao, do you want to eat tender corn? If we do, let's break it off." Come back with a basket."

   Being tormented by cats is exhausting. Only got two hours of sleep last night.

   Today, I changed the hospital to do the inspection again, and the inspection items were also changed... Still nothing was found.

   But it has not eaten or drunk for two days, and has vomited several times.
