Becca2023-11-12makgeolli process well explained I took Joe’s Makgeolli class in Seoul and he is a great teacher. Bought this book to use as a resource. Although I have only made the most basic Makgeolli, it is great and Joe’s book is a must have for those who want to brew their own. Highly recommendedStephanie Howland2022-07-14Very thorough & informative! I have been brewing Makgeolli for about 6 months before buying this book, collecting pieces of information here & there from different sources. This book really helped me to tie everything together & understand some of the science & thought processes behind the steps I was taking. There are chapters to cover everything - from the history, to the tools you need, to variety of processes (and their pros and cons), as well as recipes. As a brewer I feel more confident in my decision making thanks to Baekusaeng!Dustin Grant2022-07-08An incredibly thorough and helpful guide! I don't think there is a better resource out there for learning about brewing maggeoli, unless you can read Korean. I bought this book because I was interested in learning more about maggeoli brewing after taking a short day-class while on vacation in Korea, and this book not only answered all the questions I had after finishing that class, but also all the questions that occurred to me as I was reading through this book. If you're at all interested in maggeoli, I'd say this is a must buy.Wonjubrew2022-05-17A fanastic and comprehensive resource I've had to pleasure of following Baekusaeng/Joe and his brewing chronicles on Instagram for a little bit before his book came out and I was thrilled when he announced the publication of this resource. Videos and photos from his experimentation and prolific brewing makes you want to learn all you can from him.The book is a fantastic resource. I appreciated that it was not just a tutorial book, but really sought to breakdown the science of makgeolli fermentation in a digestible way so you can better understand what is going on with your brew. The chapters build on each other nicely, laying the foundations for the next sections and your brewing education. I think a lot of makgeolli homebrewers stumble into brewing through youtube and the well-known Makgeolli primer by Becca Baldwin, but there are a lot of second order questions along the way that are hard to get answers to with English language resources and I feel like this book did a great job of filling that gap and anticipating the most common questions and providing helpful suggestions -- especially describing in great multi-sensory detail what your brew will look at different stages. I also liked that it expanded on multi-stage brewing and how to start your own nuruk -- processes that there are limited English language resources for. Hope to be able to try his makgeolli in the future!jrs2022-02-15Craft Makgeolli at home!! I really loved this book - the step-by-step explanations were easy to do and follow. I'm so excited to be able to make my own craft makgeolli at home! Anyone who is interested in Korean cuisine or alcohol should definitely read this book.Angelo2022-02-14Informative! I really liked the chapter on making my own nuruk. It’s sometimes hard to get it from the stores in the U.S so learning to make my own is priceless. The chapters on fermentation cycles and using your senses was very informative as well. I highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to learn how to make makgeolli at home.Fooch2022-02-08great book for learning how to brew makgeolli This book is definitely a great guide into making makgeolli at home from scratch. It details everything you need to get started along with recipes and a good understanding of Korean rice wine fermentation. Easy to follow and straight to the point as well. It's quite evident that the author is very passionate about his craft and spreading the love for makgeolli!
