Rice wine update, like 21 hours in:

There was already a visible liquid layer starting to separate out when I got up this afternoon, and the yeast is bubbling merrily away. It's been staying somewhere around 25C/77F in here, but this still seems pretty quick even so.

Earlier I did stir at it, and mixed in a low guesstimated amount of yeast nutrients because it seemed like a good idea with this too. Idk, I'm calling that batch a liter of liquid all told. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Don't want to maybe overdose and give it a weird taste.

Didn't take long for the rice mush to separate right back out like that again after the mixing, and get more gas pockets from the yeast. For now, planning to give the stuff a daily stir, and probably dip out a little spoonful of the liquid to taste test starting after 3 or 4 days. Judging by what people with more experience seem to be doing, and the fact that this batch has been working so fast in even Swedish summer weather. Also give a better idea of how the brew is developing.

For now, it smelled sweet and surprisingly fruity when I had the lid open. You could eat it as an amazake/jiuniang type thing at this point. I'm just basically going for a "turn it alcoholic" speedrun with the added yeast. But, the way this was smelling, I can see why it might make an appealing sweet treat.

do you have any headcanons about mamori organizing a secret santa gift exchange among the devil bats?

I did not before this request but now I definitely do. This idea was hilarious and so much fun to think about. I had an absolute blast writing this and I hope it translates into a post that’s fun to read for any Devil Bats fans!

I think I’ve said this in a prior Christmas themed headcanon for Hiruma, but from spending his time around the Americans on the base, he actually grew to really like Secret Santa or White Elephant gift exchanges. While Mamori ends up being the one to do all the organizing and running of the gift exchange for the team, it was Hiruma’s idea to do it.

A lot of the team members weren’t really into the idea and most of them were ready to opt out of it. They really tried. The Ha-Ha Bros and Musashi were especially against it – they just had no interest in it whatsoever (or Togano pretended to have no interest in it, despite actually having an interest in it, because he didn’t want his friends to think he was a dork).

Hiruma left them zero choice, however. There were some threats, some blackmail, some showing off of his impressive gun collection…except for Musashi. With him, Hiruma just kind of had coffee with him, managed to get up enough donations for a project Musashi’s family’s construction company was organizing for the Christmas season, and Musashi agreed to participate.

Mamori makes it clear that she’s against his bullying and she tries to help everyone else when it comes to the Secret Santa. While she can’t participate in the gift exchange, because she’s organizing and running it, she makes it clear to everyone that she’ll be more than happy to help them out in any way she can. She does everything she can to make the Secret Santa as easy on everyone as she can. Knowing that some of the players don’t have as much extra cash as some of the others, she sets a budget limit to make everything clear. She has everyone do up lists of things they’d enjoy getting in the gift exchange, so that when she does the draw to assign people their giftee, they’ll have something to go by.

This touchy-feely stuff is a little too annoying for Hiruma. He has to make everything just a bit more interesting and fun for him. So, despite Mamori making the draw and matching up people, he calls the team back together the next day and surprises them with a ‘re-draw’. Except he didn’t draw anything and instead paired people up with giftees that would amuse him the most.

The tension between him and Mamori, and the fight that ensued, was off the charts. Hiruma still got his way though, but Mamori insisted on the gifters still being allowed to have the lists of what the person would like.

In order to annoy her just a bit more, and to make things funnier for him, Hiruma said that was fine…but that there was going to be another surprise twist. There would be a prize for the best Secret Santa gift given and the person who gave the worst Secret Santa gift would get a punishment game.

Knowing Hiruma’s punishment games, the team is now a little terrified.

The budget limit gets broken in several cases as members do everything they can not to be in that last place.

However, even with the slight bit of fear, as the gift exchange gets closer and closer, it starts to occur to a lot of them that this is actually kind of fun. A lot of them get into the competitiveness of it all, there gets to be a lot of teasing and good-natured shit-talking, people are taking guesses on who got who, they’re seeking advice from other teammates and spending time with some of their teammates that they normally wouldn’t. It’s actually a really good time.

Mamori is actually kind of touched by seeing all this. It makes her really happy, though she won’t admit that any of Hiruma’s ideas are to credit for this.

The gifter-giftee’s were: Sena was assigned Juumonji, Kurita was assigned Doburoku, Ishimaru was assigned Togano, Monta was assigned Musashi, Juumonji was assigned Yamaoka, Kuroki was assigned Sena, Togano was assigned Omosadake, Komusubi was assigned Satake, Yukimitsu was assigned Suzuna, Taki was assigned Ishimaru, Musashi was assigned Komusubi, Suzuna was assigned Kurita, Satake was assigned Yukimitsu, Yamaoka was assigned Monta, Omosadake was assigned Taki, and Doburoku was assigned Kuroki.

Suzuna won the grand prize because she managed to get Kurita’s favourite bakery to make and name a new type of cream puff after him.

Doburoku lost because he literally just tried to give an underage kid liquor. His punishment game? He had to sign a contract to coach the Devil Bats for at least the next five years.

Passage Share!

From Chapter 20 of The Details in the Devil

“You know, that kid looks at you very differently from the way he looks at anyone else.” Hiruma stops and glances at Doburoku. “What the fuck ya talking abou-” “Sena. That smile he always gives you. It’s so very different from his usual one that he gives everyone else.” Hiruma huffs. “What are ya trying to get at?” “Hiruma, he’s here -on this team- because of you. Are you seriously going to lie to him? Really?” Hiruma turns, walking away. “Shut up, ya fucking drunk.”

Welp, that new experimental batch of part jasmine rice sake is certainly bubbling away!

The bulk of the rice went in last night, along with more of the dry koji rice and a little water.

I did just go ahead and use the other half of this bag of generic "sushi rice", just cooked on the stove with a little less water than usual.

Today, I also added in some wine yeast nutrient blend, with another dose to go in after a couple days. Based on the last batch using roughly the same amounts of stuff, I am guesstimating the yield at just under 2L of wine here? Idek. A lot of people don't seem to use extra nutrients in homebrew rice wines, but I figure trying to keep the yeast happier couldn't hurt. I've also been brewing up enough fruit wines/ciders and meads to know that stressed yeast can poop out early and/or give you some funky flavors. And white rice doesn't have much to offer it besides sugar. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anyway, I am curious to see how this batch using all regular table rice will turn out.
