Cultivation

  1. Grind 1/2L of grain very fine
  2. Mix it into 2L of water
  3. Place the mixture in a well-washed well-rinsed clean bowl with a wide brim
  4. If possible, place a screen or fine-woven mat over the pot in place of a lid. It would let the air flow in freely, but not bugs.
  5. Wait one day
    Check: If the solution is not fizzing (carbonated, small bubbles rising from within) discard it and repeat from the beginning.
  6. Discard any foam on top of the water
