Making Sake: Day One, Morning, Moto prep

quote [ DIYsake brewing ]

12.5 cups distilled water
4lbs koji rice
4teaspoons Morton’s salt substitute
5 teaspoons lactic acid
5 pinches of Epson Salt
Just under 4 teaspoon of yeast nutrients

Wanted to make a Sake brewing post while I’m doing it.
Probably going to add photos of each step in the comments here.
Or I might just make individual posts and try to carry over all the links.

When I was in highschool we made random fruit wine in my organic chem class. It's been a long time, but I think all you need is fruit, wine yeast, and some acid (to adjust the pH). It's probably one of the simplest things you can make as pretty much your only variables are the fruit and the acidity.

Later it life, I've made beer and I don't recommend it as a simple thing. The "fun" of brewing comes from micromanaging every step, and honestly I think it's kind of a pain until you invest some money in equipment.
