Take out the soaked glutinous rice, rinse it with clear water, and pour it into a steaming bucket to spread it flat. Boil the pot with water, then put it into the pot to cook. When the steam rises from the rice layer, cover the pot. Steam for 10 minute, and use a small bamboo broom to remove the hot water from the rice noodles at one time to steam the rice evenly. Cover the pot and steam for 15 minutes, so that the rice is cooked thoroughly. Then put the steaming bucket on the rice shower rack and drench it with clear water for 2 ~ 3 minutes to reduce the temperature of rice to about 30℃.

2. Drain the drenched rice, pour it into the jar, add the sweet wine medicine and the white wine medicine, stir well, pat it into a square surface, and dig a round hole (about 30 cm in diameter) in the middle. The cylinder mouth is covered with a clean and dry straw cover, and the cylinder is covered with a straw mat for insulation. After 22-30 hours, when the wine juice in the cave is 3-4 cm deep, you can take off the insulation straw mat and pour the wine juice on the bad noodles with a small spoon every 6 hours to make it fully brewed. After 7 days, the distiller's grains are evenly mixed and allowed to stand 14 days, and then aged, which can be used for bad guys.
