Eight hundred and seventieth chapters winemaking(1/2)

After dinner, Ye Rongyao continued to make wine. Now the glutinous rice is almost done. Ye Rongyao poured the glutinous rice into a steaming bucket to steam it.

The first step in making wine is distillation. At this stage, you must first steam the glutinous rice that has been drained with water.

The old village chief Ye Xianghai was helping to burn the fire.

"Go and play with me."

Just when Ye Rongyao was busy making wine, animals like "Xiaobai" also came to join in the fun.

But they were all driven away by Ye Rongyao. He was making wine. What were a group of furry guys coming to do? If the hair fell into the wine, who would dare to drink this wine?

Waiting bored for an hour aside, with the sensitivity of winemaking, Ye Rongyao took out the mature glutinous rice in time. At this moment, the glutinous rice was full and crystal clear, and it looked very moving in the sun.

Even when Ye Rongyao saw this glutinous rice, he had the urge to eat it. However, this was just a thought, but it was enough to prove that the quality of this glutinous rice was excellent.

At this moment, what we need to do is the next step, cooling. If it is mechanical, then it may only take a moment, but Ye Rongyao pays attention to pure nature, so he wants to cool naturally.

However, this did not cause Ye Rongyao. Ye Rongyao and Xiao Sier carried the steaming bucket containing the hot glutinous rice into the living room, and turned the temperature of the air conditioner in the living room to the lowest level. Sure enough, the glutinous rice was completely cooled not long after.

It took Ye Rongyao two and a half hours to finish these tedious things, but he was not impatient at all, because only by making them with the most serious care can one make a peerless wine.

"Brother Ye, is this brewing wine?"

Chen Xiaoyou lived in the city and had never seen wine brewing since he was a child. He looked at Ye Rongyao and the others busy with curiosity, and asked Ouyang Nazha beside him.

“Yes, it’s making wine.”

Ouyang Nazha looked at Ye Rongyao who was busy and nodded and said to her friend.

Ouyang Nazha was born in the grassland area and nomadic peoples also often brew wine, the most common one is "horse milk wine".

Although the wine made by Ye Rongyao is very different from the "mammal wine" brewed by Ouyang Nazha's home, steaming and fermenting are indispensable in the process.

"I didn't expect that our boss is so rich and still brewing wine at home?"

Li Xiaoyou said. In Li Xiaoyou's opinion, does this rich man still use his own wine to make wine? If you spend money directly to buy expensive wine, it will definitely be much better than the ones you brew at home.

"Haha, you don't understand. This wine tastes better if you make it homemade."

Ouyang Nazha said.

On the grassland, people brew their own "horse milk wine", and basically they will not buy "horse milk wine" from other people's homes. They will only buy some "meat milk wine" from herders like this unless they run a hotel.

"oh."

Chen Xiaoyou continued to watch Ye Rongyao brewing white wine with comprehension.

At noon, Ye Rongyao challenged the grated glutinous rice and adult wine chorus, and he also took out his secret recipe in time.

So, in just one afternoon, the fermentation that takes ten days elsewhere was completed, so the next step is to distillate.

Distillation is a very important process throughout the entire winemaking process. It can even be said that the quality of the wine brewed is directly related to the operation during distillation.

This shows the importance of distillation in the winemaking process.

This distillation is a long waiting process.

Ye Rongyao could only sit aside and chat with everyone, waiting for the distillation process.

As time passed by minute by minute, the fire in the stove was still burning there. Now the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and it is burning even more vigorously.

Slowly, Ye Rongyao smelled a scent of wine, refreshing his mind and indulged in it. The smell seemed faint, but it smelled like a feeling that people were willing to get drunk like this.

"This wine? This wine is so tempting, right?"

This is the first time that the fifth grandfather Ye Xianglai, who has brewed wine for half his life, has smelled such a strong aroma of wine, which is better than the wine he brewed at home.

No, it should be better than the liquor brewed by people in the village.

Now Ye always has the urge to rush up and take a sip.

"This wine is really fragrant, it tastes really mellow."

The old village chief Ye Xianghai used his nose to smell the fragrance of wine floating in the air.

As an old alcoholic, Ye Xianghai couldn't stand the smell of this wine the most.

It's really tempting.

I have drunk Moutai, Du Kang wine, and the old village chief. The mellow flavor of those wines is far less than the current smell of the wine.

"What kind of wine does our boss make? It's so delicious!"

Chen Xiaoyou asked in surprise.

"I don't know, it's the first time I smelled such a fragrant wine."

Ouyang Nazha shook her head and said.

Ouyang Nazha, who grew up drinking "horse milk wine" since she was a child, has a very good alcohol content and has also drunk a lot of white wine, but there has never been the aroma of that white wine, which makes Ouyang Nazha so intoxicated.

"It seems that my husband really knows how to make wine!"

Liu Qingqing, who was watching her husband brewing wine, also smelled the mellow smell of wine. In Liu Qingqing's opinion, this smell was more mellow than the special wine her grandfather often drank.

The people in the yard were conquered by the aroma of wine brewed by Ye Rongyao.

Although everyone hasn't drunk this wine yet, the fragrance makes people realize that the wine brewed is definitely the best.

After about ten minutes, the people in the yard were almost intoxicated by the mellow smell of the wine, and the distillation was basically completed.

Ye Rongyao quickly put out the fire.

If the distillation is almost done, don’t burn it on high heat, otherwise it will easily evaporate the drunken mellow fragrance in large quantities. In that case, the quality of the wine will be greatly discounted.

"Husband, is this wine ready?"

Liu Qingqing walked to Ye Rongyao curiously and asked.

"Okay, put this wine in the jar later and you'll be done."

Ye Rongyao said with a smile.

The most important thing in making wine is distillation. After the distillation is completed, the wine is basically ready. Now the wine is left to cool and store.

"Brother Ye, can you drink this wine now?"

Ouyang Nazha is a prairie child with good wine. When she smells such a fragrant smell of wine, she can't help but want to take a sip.

"No, wait a few days."

Ye Rongyao shook his head and said.

This wine that you can't drink just now is because there may be toxins, and the other is because the wine is too high.

"oh."

Seeing Ye Rongyao say this, Ouyang Nazha can endure the fragrance of this white wine.

After about an hour, the wine had almost cooled down. Several people brought two big jars and poured all the brewed wine into two big jars.

These two large wine jars are both 350 liter large-capacity wine jars.

Although Ye Rongyao had a lot of rice wine in this steaming barrel, he was not satisfied with these two big wine jars, and sealed the big wine jars, and Ye Rongyao continued to make wine.

Ye Rongyao had thought about it and today he would fill up the wine in four large-capacity jars of 350 liters.

Two large-capacity wine jars were bought from the town by Ye Rongyao, and two large-capacity wine jars were originally owned by Ye Rongyao's family.

It was bought by Ye Rongyao’s parents before. When Ye Rongyao’s parents were alive, they basically had to brew rice wine once a year.

Not only do I use it at home, I can also buy it and sell it to the town.

The rice wine brewed by the farmers is very popular in the town.

"Wife, go back and rest first!"

At around 10 o'clock in the evening, Ye Rongyao and the others were still brewing white wine. Ye Rongyao said to Liu Qingqing, who was sitting aside and wanted to sleep.

Ye Rongyao wanted to fill all the wines in these four large wine jars and had to brew three times, only two times, and it would take at least two hours later, so Ye Rongyao urged Liu Qingqing to go back to bed.

After all, it is only one week before the due date, so the rest of this pregnant woman is very important.

"Um."

Liu Qingqing really wants to go to bed. Listening to Ye Rongyao's words, she will go back to the house to sleep first.

He sent Liu Qingqing back to the house to sleep, and Ye Rongyao and the old village chief continued to guard.

It was not until one o'clock in the morning that the liquor was brewed. In addition to the four 350-liter large wine jars, it was also filled with four 50-liter wine jars.

However, there were two jars of 50 liters of white wine, which were taken away by the old village chief and the fifth grandfather at night.

He said that this was a labor fee, which made Ye Rongyao smile bitterly.

Isn’t it just two jars of wine? I’m so anxious to get it back in the middle of the night.

However, considering the 50-liter white wine and the weight of the jar, it must be difficult for the two old men to move home, so they asked Xiao Sier to drive an electric tricycle to help them take it back.

...

In the morning, Ouyang Nazha and Chen Xiaoyou got up early.

When I came here yesterday afternoon, it was almost dark. After dinner, I kept watching Ye Rongyao brewing wine there. I still haven't had a good look at this beautiful courtyard, which is as beautiful as the castle in fairy tales.
