WHY IS THERE ALWAYS A PINEAPPLE FLAVOR IN EVERY VARIETY CASE OF HARD CIDER.

pineapple is the absolute worst type of cider and i used to harshly judge people who drank it. the only person I ever hung out with that drank them turned out to be a chud, and i have to believe that there's a connection. since my partner hates it too and i don't want to pour them out, I'm forced to drink it!

when communism is established pineapple will only be allowed to be used as a topping on pizza.

    yeah i used to browse r/homebrewing but it always seemed like a lot more effort than i was willing to do. i never thought about making sake though, I'll have to look into that too

      Just find a place that sells fresh koji and you are golden.

      Cheap af to make. We make 5 gallons for about $20-30.

        do you polish your rice? I always felt like that was a hard to get around step for good quality and it just sounds sooo wasteful.

          No, we just buy fresh polished rice from our local asian mart.

          Rice polishers are expensive.

            wait why do they have polished rice? I've never seen polished rice in a store before

              Sake rice is 40-60% polish.

              Normal polished rice is 70-90%.

              All white rice is "polished" compared to brown.
