cultivating immortals and planting the fields

Chapter 543 Ceramic Jar
"Brother Xiaowei, I want to cut the grapes for you too, okay? Keke will go up to the house to cut the grapes for you later." Master Zhang came over early after breakfast, leaving Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang to pack their things at home. Even Xiao Keke, a little girl, found a pair of sharp scissors from nowhere, held them in her hands, and cut them with a snap, pestering Zhang Wei that she had to join in for a while, and let her eat grapes below. No, I still have to go to the roof with Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei knows the situation of this girl, in fact, just go up, even if she falls, she can only smash the ground into a hole, she will definitely not have any problems, otherwise, the innate physique is not It's free, and with Zhang Wei's sealing technique, all the innate true energy is not released outside, but circulates endlessly in the body, and is suppressed everywhere in the body. The innate true energy is constantly transforming the little girl's system, It also made her physique extraordinary.

Although Zhang Ye's family also knew that their grandson was extraordinary, but in their eyes, this little girl was always a delicate little girl, and they were afraid that they would bump into each other.

Therefore, Xiao Keke is also smart, knowing that telling her grandfather that there will be absolutely no results, no, Zhang Ye opened the door and came in, and the little girl "clicked" the scissors and trotted to Zhang Wei approached him, and discussed with Zhang Wei with a smile first.

It seems that as long as Zhang Wei's consent is obtained, the people in her family will never stop her. Xiao Keke's understanding is like this. In the village, even the most powerful grandpa will listen to Zhang Wei. Cheap big brother's words.

Zhang Wei doesn't know how this little girl's temper is. After watching her for so long, this little girl doesn't hide anything from him, even if she doesn't agree, this little girl will definitely take a look at everyone later. If you don't pay attention, you will surely climb up faster than monkeys.

Although the little girl is young, she has a violent temper.

"Xiaowei, get ready, your uncle and your aunt are packing up, come back later, I think, let's not do too much today, just pick one or two hundred catties and fill this tank up. , the wine should be freshly picked and put in a tank." Master Zhang followed Xiao Keke, holding a frame in his hand, inside the frame was a piece of plastic cloth that had been cleaned long ago, and with the other hand A ceramic jar that looks like a wine jar, I don't know what it contains.

Zhang Wei looked at it with novelty, so he couldn't help asking.

"This is the top-secret tool for our wine making." Master Zhang was so mysterious, he raised the jar in his hand with a smile, and said to Zhang Wei: "This thing must be made every year, and then it will be made with a special method. In fact, we generally don’t need distiller’s yeast to make wine in rural areas. However, if distiller’s yeast is not used, the grapes cannot be washed, otherwise, the fermentation will not be good. However, the wine made from unwashed grapes is mellow, but , but it has an astringent taste, so it affects the taste a bit."

Zhang Wei knows what Zhang Ye said. Whether it is earthen recipes or industrial wine making, the cleaning of the grapes is simply a little cleaning, and the rotten grape particles are removed by the way. Clean the grapes as Master Zhang ordered.

In fact, the fungus on grapes is Aspergillus fermented by grapes. If it is washed away, the grapes sealed in the tank will not be able to ferment well. If the wine is not well fermented, it is probably not called wine.

But according to Mr. Zhang, what he puts in this jar is exactly the koji mold that Mr. Zhang made for fermentation this year.Therefore, as long as there is this jar of koji mold, then you are not afraid that you will not be able to make delicious wine. This thing is unique to Mr. Zhang in Zhangwa Village. Even Zhang Huaiyi is very envious of Mr. Zhang's method of making koji mold .

After listening to Master Zhang's explanation, Zhang Wei realized why Master Zhang insisted that Zhang Wei clean the grape particles.Although Zhang Wei's grapes have not been polluted by any pesticides at all, and have not even been applied with any chemical fertilizers, they are absolutely purely natural.Even without cleaning, it is much cleaner than the original wine brewed by those wineries.

Zhang Wei took Master Zhang's jar of koji mold, and carefully put it in the house, being careful not to let anything touch it, this thing is the key to wine making.By the way, Mr. Zhang also spread the cleaned white plastic cloth beside the well, and then the two of them made a few plastic vats. After picking the grapes, they cleaned them in the plastic vats on the spot. Zhang Wei pushed the fermentation vat borrowed from Zhang Huaiyi's house to the edge of the well water, and the grape particles that would be cleaned later could be put directly in it for fermentation.

The wine fermentation is different from Zhang Wei's Baiguoxianjiu, which adopts a fully enclosed closed fermentation. Moreover, Zhang Wei's fermentation vessel is made of desert colored stone, which is extremely hard. Even if the berry fermentation produces a lot of gas, it must not It will break through the hard desert colored stones. Besides, Zhang Wei used [-]-year-old sorghum and placed [-]-year-old ginseng to promote fermentation, which means that the [-]-year-old wine in the bottle is the koji used for fermentation.

Therefore, Zhang Wei's fermentation can be carried out in a completely closed environment, and no one has found out that the method is reasonable or unreasonable. In this way, Zhang Wei has produced fruit wine that is equivalent to the top-level existence in the mortal world. However, in the real world, even with the same raw materials, without Zhang Wei's facilities, it would be impossible to produce such delicious fruit wine.

In the mortal world, the fermentation vessels used are mostly stone vats or glass products, plastic products, or even stainless steel products without embroidery. When the juice is fermented, it is easy to produce a chemical reaction. The other is that once the reaction occurs, it will affect the taste of the whole tank of wine.

Moreover, during the fermentation process, it is also necessary to eliminate a large amount of waste and absorb a certain amount of oxygen to carry out aerobic fermentation. Therefore, the fermentation vessels required to make wine in the mortal world are not closed.

Especially for the production of red wine, when fermenting, it is necessary to stir the juice in the fermentation tank from time to time. One is to make the juice ferment well and completely, and the other is to make the purple grape skins floating on the upper layer It can be submerged, so that the puree wine that is fermented in the future can be well colored.

To make wine, in addition to high-quality grapes, fermentation tanks, and koji are optional according to individual conditions, but another raw material is necessary, that is, white sugar or rock sugar.
