Rebirth of Okuki Kofuro

Chapter 27 The New Wine Sours

For a moment just now, Liang Kangsheng really wanted to tell his father about his brother-in-law's bad thoughts, but he thought that his father's body was weak, and his emotional upheaval would definitely be detrimental to his recovery, so he forcibly endured it.

Not wanting to talk too much about this unpleasant topic, Qu Yi thought for a while and asked what happened to Liang Kangsheng's wine shop.

In his previous life, he was immersed in his own thoughts at this time and didn't care about the outside world. He only vaguely knew that there was a problem with the Liang family's wine shop. He didn't understand what the problem was and how serious it was.

"This year's new wine was spoiled, and the master craftsmen found it when they were about to seal the cans and put them in the cellar." Liang Kangsheng told Qu Yi what he knew.

Although Liang Kangsheng had never been in charge of the brewery since he was a child, as the young owner of the Liang Family Distillery, he was still clear about the various steps of wine making, and by the way, he explained the wine making process of the Liang Family Distillery in detail.

After hearing this, Qu Yi thought for a moment, then asked, "Has this ever happened before?"

"It should have happened, but it won't happen so much at once." Liang Kangsheng heard from his father that there may be many problems in the wine-making process. Sourness, astringency, and bitterness are very common. About [-]% fail.

The wine is brewed once a year, and any problems with the newly brewed wine will suddenly cut off the income of the Liang family this year, which in turn will affect the follow-up.

Frowning and thinking, Qu Yi's eyes lit up when he thought of the origin of the system god, and asked expectantly: "System god, do you know why the wine is sour?"

[Dear host, "Du Kang" is at your service around the clock, please feel free to consult if you have any questions~]

[According to the system data to answer the host's doubts, there are two possibilities for the wine to become sour. One is that there are bacteria such as acetic acid bacteria and lactic acid bacteria in the fermentation liquid. During the fermentation process, the bacteria multiply and cause the wine to become sour. 】

[There is also a possibility that the seal is not in place during the brewing process, the oxygen content is too much, the work of the yeast is disturbed, the glucose fails to be converted into ethanol and water, and becomes carbon dioxide and water, and the decomposed ethanol is oxidized into acetic acid , causing the wine to sour. 】

A series of incomprehensible words made Quyi and Liang Kangsheng dizzy. Why are there so many gentlemen?Isn't koji used for wine making?

And yang?One spring?Eryang painting circle?It's all and nothing.

Liang Kangsheng immediately thought of the few Taoist books he had read. Why did he feel that the wine making mentioned by the system gods seemed to be Taoist priests making alchemy.

Qu Yi was more confused than Liang Kangsheng, he blinked and blinked: "The system god, can you speak slower?"

"Du Kang" repeated what he said just now, and slowed down, but Quyi still didn't understand.

Liang Kangsheng frowned and carefully stroked what the system god said, regardless of the incomprehensible words. The system god meant that there were two possibilities for the wine to become sour. It wasn't sealed properly when brewing, and some kind of gas escaped.

The Liang family's recipe for distiller's koji was handed down from the ancestors, and Liang's father made it himself. If there is a problem with the distiller's koji, it should be that all the wine is sour, not just some of it.

Therefore, if there is a problem with the new wine this time, it is likely that the clay pot that holds the wine has a hole, and it will lose air in it.

Liang Kangsheng took a deep breath and gritted his teeth. The clay pots used in his family's wine making were bought by his uncle from outside.

The steps and time of winemaking in the winery are almost the same every year. The autumn harvest is in August, and the winemaking starts after the new rice is sealed for three months. The new wine is sealed in January of the next year and put into the cellar.

Ever since the old couple of the dealer had an accident, Zhuang Qingze did not continue to sail with the dealer's family members. In order to take care of his wife and brother, Liang's father entrusted him with selling wine and buying clay pots.

Therefore, every July, Zhuang Qingze set out with some high-quality new wine, sold the new grain on the way while selling the wine, and returned to Yang'an County around October, just in time to bring back the clay pot.

However, after years of care and trust, a white-eyed wolf bit the Liang family's neck fiercely.

Qu Yi found that Liang Kangsheng's mood was wrong, he didn't have the time to ask the system god to understand the reason why the wine was sour, and quickly helped Liang Kangsheng: "Sir, what's wrong with you?"

Liang Kangsheng tried his best to relax, and said calmly: "Let's go to the winery tomorrow to have a look. I think there is something wrong with the clay pots used for wine making."

"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow." Qu Yi agreed without thinking.

On the second day, Qu Yi and Liang Kangsheng went for a walk to the wine shop after breakfast.

After these changes in the past few days, the sour taste of the new wine was even stronger than before. Liang Kangsheng and the others could smell the sour smell mixed with the wine when they walked outside the winery.
