Pokemon Settler

Chapter 295 Suspected failed fermentation

Once you have a time point that you are looking forward to, you will feel that time passes very slowly.

The period before going to Sunshine Town was very difficult for Rock.

Every morning when he gets up, he will measure the hair of the Meili sheep and Rongrong sheep as soon as possible.

And before going to bed at night, he had to look at the calendar and count the days.

Fortunately, the busy and fulfilling work during the day occupied all of Rock's energy and physical strength, leaving him no time to be distracted.

So although it was difficult, the day passed very quickly every day, and the week passed in such a busy manner.

Is it okay? Are you sure it's okay?

Rock was holding a bucket and looking at the geranium expectantly.

While having breakfast this morning, Geranium suddenly seemed to notice something. Its two stamen tentacles probed in the air for a moment, and then told Roque with great certainty that the liquid in the carapace of the urchins had completed fermentation.

So Rock, who was very surprised, finished the food in his hands in two gulps, found a clean bucket, and hurried to the oak forest.

Gamai!

Geranium nodded to Rock confidently.

Seeing this, Abo Monster and Hei Lujia, who were following, also looked at the pots in the middle of the wooden pile with gleaming eyes.

Only Chenglong sniffed the smell in the air, and then tilted his head in confusion.

However, out of trust in its partners, it did not make a sound, and this scene was not noticed by Luo Ke and others who were all paying attention to Hu Hu.

Ha ha!

After receiving Geranium's confirmation, Rock couldn't wait to hold up a pot.

Baba~

Huchu didn't resist Roark's movements. Instead, he stretched out his tentacle-like limbs very friendly and wrapped around his arm.

Luo Ke held the shell of the pot and shook it gently, and the sound of tons and tons of liquid suddenly came from inside.

He put his nose to the hole in the pot's carapace and smelled it. He smelled a slightly sweet and sour fragrance, but there was no smell of alcohol.

Rock didn't take this to heart because the smell wasn't unpleasant. He thought it might be a unique characteristic of the kettle's carapace.

Let me taste what it tastes like.

Rock raised the pot, pointed the hole in the pot's carapace at his mouth, and poured out a small stream of liquid.

Gudu...uh!

After taking a sip, Rock's throat suddenly froze and he immediately put the pot down from his mouth.

Gamai? Qiabai? Hey? Bah

Geranium and the others were originally eagerly waiting for Roark to comment on the smell of the liquid in the pot's carapace, but when they saw Roark's actions, they looked at him suspiciously.

This smell...

Rock looked at the pot in his hand and frowned slowly.

As soon as the liquid poured from the kettle carapace was taken into the mouth, it did not taste like the sweet and mellow mead as expected. Instead, it was a little sour and tasted a bit like...

vinegar!

Rock thought about the taste for a while and suddenly realized it.

Then he poured all the liquid in the kettle's carapace into the bucket he brought. The color of the liquid was very light amber, clear and translucent.

Yes, vinegar is brewed with oxygen, and wine is brewed without oxygen. This is completely biology knowledge in junior high school. How could I forget this!

After Luo Ke poured honey and water into the shells of the Huchus, he didn't care anymore because he believed in the magical fermentation ability of the Huchus.

As a result, a very important step was ignored, which was to use wooden plugs to plug the holes in the kettle's shell.

This mistake caused the fermentation environment in the kettle's carapace to become an aerobic environment, while the fermentation of alcohol requires an anaerobic environment. The fermentation product of sugar in an aerobic environment is acetic acid.

So although the pots and pots fermented successfully, what they got was not the mead that Rock wanted, but a kind of vinegar, which might be called honey vinegar.

But this honey vinegar seems to be okay, too?

Rock stretched out his finger to dip a little bit of the bright honey vinegar in the bucket, put it in his mouth and tasted it again.

This kind of honey vinegar has a sweet and sour taste, with some honey fragrance, but it is not as sweet as honey, and it is not as pungent and irritating as ordinary vinegar. It enters the throat very delicately, and it feels refreshing and appetizing after drinking it.

You guys have a taste.

Rock carried the bucket and asked Arbo and the others to taste it. As a result, the elves all thought that the honey vinegar brewed by accident was not bad.

Since no one hates the taste of honey vinegar, Rock is going to protect the honey vinegar and use it directly as vinegar for daily cooking.

After all, these honey vinegar are still the product of successful fermentation of Hu Hu, and the raw material is precious special-grade honey. Judging from the nutritional value alone, it will definitely be of great benefit to the bodies of Rock and the elves.

Of course, Rock has not forgotten the five different-colored pots. The fermentation products of the different-colored pots will have unique effects.

However, he didn't know whether it was because the effect was too slow or because the raw materials added at the time were too simple. After tasting it, Roque found that except that it tasted a little more fragrant, it was no different from ordinary pot-fermented honey vinegar.

So Rock directly mixed the honey vinegar from all the kettle shells together and filled two sealed steel cans with a capacity of fifty liters.

This honey vinegar is enough to last until next year. This will save us a supply of supplies in the future.

Rock moved two heavy steel cans filled with honey and vinegar under the tool shed, and achieved another kind of self-sufficiency in food. Although it was only a seasoning, he was still very satisfied.

The raw material of these honey vinegar is the special-grade honey harvested in our own bee farm, and it is brewed in pots with magical fermentation capabilities. It is safe and has very high nutritional value.

Over time, Rock and the elves' physical condition will get better and better. His ultimate goal is to achieve self-sufficiency in more than 80% of the food for three meals.

What will last until next year, Rock, what good things are you hiding!

Suddenly Junsha Yami's voice fell from the sky, and Rock quickly looked up.

Bi Diao spread his wide wings and swooped down from the sky. He flapped his wings just before landing, whipping up a whirlwind to offset the inertia of his fall, and then landed lightly on the ground.

Yami, you came just in time. The potters have just brewed a batch of honey vinegar, and it tastes very good.

Rock opened his arms and caught Junsha Yami who jumped off Bi Diao's back.

This weight is nothing to worry about for Rock, who has withstood the test of riding a dragon.

Oh? Then I'm going to have a good taste. But wait a minute, guess what I brought you?

After a warm hug, Junsha Yamei let go of Roque, and then looked at him with a constricted expression.
