The year is almost at an end, and we have had so much fun with brewing classes, we thought we would squeeze one more in before 2013 slips away!
Our expat brewing instructors at Susubori Academy, Becca Baldwin & Dan Lenaghan, will be offering their very awesome Introduction to Makgeolli Brewing class in English.
When: Saturday, December 14th – 3:30pm – 6:30pm
Where: Susubori Academy (near Chungjeongno Station)
What: Join us for a hands-on makgeolli making and tasting experience and learn the basics of making and appreciating this fermented, fizzy, and nostalgic Korean beverage.
Learn the basics of preparing rice for fermentation, using various kinds of yeast (nuruk vs. ipguk), making godubap (a method of steaming rice), and creating the right environment for your special brew.
Learn how to adapt the techniques used in class for home brewing.
Experience a blind tasting of various kinds of makgeolli to learn how different techniques and ingredients affect flavor and mouth feel.
Finally, take home your very own fermentation vessel full of rice bubbling with yeast and enzymes, soon to be makgeolli. Filter your brew at home a week later and taste the fruit of your labors.
Cost: 40,000won (all inclusive)
The class will have a limited number of participants, so if you would like to participate, send an email to mmpkorea@gmail.com with your name and phone number to register!
