Chapter 124

"Take out all the carbon pots. We can't leave this thing in the curved room any more. We'll close the curved room for a while. If the carbon pots are still burning, we'll make them for nothing." The stone bear said as he took up a charcoal basin with both hands and went outside.

Kuaima, they also cut off the remaining four charcoal pots.

The area of this curved room is not very large. Just now, five charcoal pots were burning in it, and a few big living people were living in it. The temperature had already come up. Although it's not as hot as summer, it's definitely comparable to the heating room of previous life.

Shi Xiong's estimation is correct. Before going out, he took a look at the simple thermometer hanging at the door, which showed that the temperature was 22 ℃.

Seeing that the stone bear put three thermometers in different positions of the starter, then closed the door of the stone house, and put down the animal skin curtain hanging outside, Mo Mo Cao asked curiously, "guardian, is this how to make the starter?"

Looking at the strong woman, Shi Xiong shook his head slightly. "It's still early. It will take at least 50 days for these koji to be made, but I don't have to be as busy as today."

"Ah? It's going to take so long? " Mo Mo Cao's mouth widened in surprise, as did several other people.

"Well, it will take so long. Momo grass, you should remember that you can't be impatient when making koji. It must be fully fermented, otherwise it can't be done well. If it is in summer, the fermentation time can be shortened to 40 days, but now it is winter, the weather is very cold, so the fermentation time should be at least 50 days! As for whether we can make qualified koji in this period, we still need to judge according to the situation at that time. "

Momo grass is the person in charge of making distiller's yeast and making wine. Just like another good friend of Hongyun, yangweihua, that woman is the person in charge of farming.

Although the gaoshu tribe is a medium-sized tribe, there are still too few people who can use the stone bear. If he only hopes to work on his own, he will never be able to develop the gaoshu tribe to the planned scale.

Therefore, from now on, the stone bear will start to train the leaders of various projects, just like the wood planer has been designated as the leader of steel making by him, and the grey moose uncle has been designated as the leader of salt making by him.

These people were named "project manager" by stone bear.

After more and more projects appear, Shi Xiong also needs to choose someone to be the "project manager".

There is a Chinese idiom, which is well said. Now the stone bear is a point, even if it is a very powerful point, it can not affect much, so it needs to cultivate more "points".

One of his points may affect 100 people, so we should first cultivate these 100 people into the second batch of "points". Once these people succeed, we should spread them out, and these 100 "points" will affect 10000 people. If we develop again, more people will be affected

The principle of geometric multiplication is very clear to Shi Xiong.

"What should I pay attention to during starter fermentation?" After the initial surprise, Mo Mo Cao began to take himself to the position of "project manager" and asked Shi Xiong.

Stone bear is very satisfied with the nod, know to take the initiative to ask, it shows that Momo grass has decided to seriously do it. For this kind of people who like to ask questions, Shi Xiong has always been generous in answering.

"Of course, there are many things to pay attention to during starter fermentation. In fact, although the work we have done before is very important, the real key lies in the period of starter fermentation. "

The stone bear pointed to the stone house and said, "we have two doors in this room, one facing east and one facing west. These are the two doors specially designed to install the refractory bricks faster and move out the refractory bricks faster after firing the refractory bricks. If these two doors are opened at the same time, the convective cold air will reduce the temperature and humidity in the curved room in a very short time. But starter fermentation needs stable temperature and humidity, so remember, these two doors must not be opened at the same time. "

After a pause, the stone bear continued to ask, "can you read the simple thermometer?"

Mo Mo Cao nodded. She could learn such a simple thing, especially the guardian showed two marks on the simple thermometer. As long as she was not a fool, she could understand what the two marks were for.

"You have to remember that the koji we made is a kind of high-temperature koji in strict sense, so the optimal temperature for koji fermentation is between 58 ℃ and 63 ℃. The two red marks I marked, the one above represents the temperature of 63 ℃ and the one below represents the temperature of 58 ℃. If the temperature is between the two marks, then it is safe. If the temperature exceeds the mark above, it needs to be turned. If the temperature is lower than the mark below, you need to keep warm and moisturizing

"Well, from today on, after about seven days, you can go into the starter room and have a look at the thermometers I put on the starter. At this time, the temperature and humidity in the room will be very high, because after seven days of fermentation, the fermentation has entered the peak period, so you need to pay close attention to the temperature and humidity in the room. "

"When you go in and out of the room, you must be fast, and you can only go in and out through this door. Before you enter, you should close the animal skin curtain, and then open the door inside. When you come out, close the door first, and then open the animal skin curtain, so as to ensure that the temperature and humidity loss in the room is small. Of course, if you find that the temperature of the three thermometers exceeds the top red mark, you need to do the first turning

The so-called turning means that when the temperature of the starter reaches the requirements of medium and high temperature, the positions of the upper and lower layers and the inner and outer layers of the starter should be reversed, and the upright position of the starter itself should also be reversed. In other words, it's a big turn over for all the pieces.

Turning is also a very key work procedure, especially for the first time. The choice of turning time is directly related to the quality of finished music.

It is for this reason that the stone bear will solemnly say so much to Mo Mo Cao.

"After the first turning, the temperature and humidity will drop a lot, but it doesn't matter. It is inevitable. However, within two or three days after the first turning, the temperature and humidity in the room will return to the original level, and then after about seven days, we need to carry out the second turning.... "

Stone bear takes the trouble to tell Mo Mo Cao a lot. Although stone bear will follow when turning the song, he still needs Mo Mo Cao to remember all these things. Because in the future, Mo Mo grass will be needed to lead the work
