The fresh dry rice is smooth and powdery. Wash and rinse a few times until the rice feel rougher to the hands. I typically washed it 3-4 times.

I am making 10kg of glutinous in 5kg x 2 bags. These are typical Thai glutinous rice found in most neighborhood grocery shops.     

I started a new batch of glutinous rice wine, mainly for the purpose of documenting the various steps so that those who have asked me how to make this rice wine can try it at home. The steps are long, but most of them are personal preferences. So brace yourself for the lengthy and long winded posts over the next few weeks. So, I will start with the end product - a sweet reddish and orangery glutinous rice wine (and quite a strong one too). 

My first attempt to share this traditional glutinous rice wine making process. Will start update over next few weeks as I progress in the making. Like if you wish to learn more, Share if you know someone else may like to learn too.Thank you

I have a Facebook page that describe homemade glutinous rice wine making process, and occasionally also also posted some rice wine related topics. Instead of referring visitors to my Facebook Page, I thought it would be easier for people to view them here and now. So, I will start making several blog-posts over next few days transporting, and perhaps editing along the way, those page-posts. Will start soon...
