Mmmm, oatmeal with berries!

And, the fully assembled glop is bubbling away.

The oatmeal had gone very liquidy, with the koji rice starting to float near the top as with more usual batches. And everything does have that distinctive sweet "koji at work" smell.

Actually smelling pretty damned good. So, I am more optimistic at this point that we might end up with something drinkable.

One batch of Swedified Frankensake coming up! 😁

Just getting ready to start on another weird batch. I had been wanting to try a Thai black rice and blueberry brew mainly for the color, but the pressure cooker I've been using as a rice cooker for glutinous rice is messed up and we haven't fixed or replaced it yet. And I really didn't want to mess with steaming wholegrain rice over a pot of water on the stove.

But, I have also been thinking of trying something with oats for a cheaper brew using at least mostly local ingredients. (Also want to try growing my own koji on oats, but not right now.) Apparently at least one other person had luck with a combo oat and rice wine: Has anyone else experimented with oats? Just bottled a 45/55 oat/rice micro-batch. It’s silky smooth.

May as well try combining the two experiments!

So, I decided to try basically adapting the corny batch recipe to start off with cooked oatmeal instead of cornmeal mush (or rice porridge) partly because it's cheaper than the other oats. Also scaling this batch down some, on the chance it turns into a real shitshow.

We've also got that wholegrain oat "rice", which I think is actually steamed or something to make it cook faster. It does cook up just about like white rice. Sort of hedging my bets with that jasmine rice. I know it works fine for part of a batch with the pricier glutinous rice, and we accidentally bought boil in bag stuff which is handily premeasured out at 125g a bag. Couldn't hurt, and I'm just planning to cook them together in the same pot. They're close enough on cooking time and water ratios that it should hopefully work OK.

I guess half that bag of berries can get thawed and thrown in when I add the whole oats and rice after a couple days.

Will this turn out drinkable? That's anybody's guess. Should it be fun to try? Hells to the yeah.
