Those boxes look so similar to the boxes they use to inoculate Koji rice in Japan to make sake.. I have made some sake and strained out the Koji and left over rice, do you think these micro-organisms would be similar? Or good at all for compost? The sediment contains dead yeast sells but also some living sake yeast as well as Koji mold and a bit of alcohol. I guess the alchohol will evaporate in the compost? Is this the same essence of microorganism in my solution to provide good inoculation to my soil? The left overs have been in my fridge bubbling away for a few months. Thanks for the videos

@@intriguedpipeman6478 Yes you are quite right. These are the types of indigenous fermentation microbes we are looking to capture along with their microbiomes in pristine nature. However when you capture the microbes from healthy leaf mold and they innoculate the rice, they then need to be adapted to your environment and soil type/microbiota. This forms the basics of Indigenous microorganisms cultivation and propagation theory in KNF. The techniques developed by master Cho where learned in Japan from many mentors that all taught him many different T.E.K, microbe/biotech methodologies, inputs, nutritive cycle theory and philosophies which he combined into the KNF system.

We used to get this bloom in our wrapped fermented peanut hay. Our cows were so healthy then! The farmer quit growing due to his age and health and we miss it so much! The pink and white would grow over the hay and the hay smelled like beer and pickles 😋

I watched a couple of Chris's videos and he always seemed to top his jars with a layer of sugar to ensure the bubbling didn't happen. Just about 1in layer on the top. Wonder if that would have helped these batches. Love to see the videos, trial and errors. Always a great way to learn for everyone!

I’m a chef and I noticed that Different brands of rice sometimes cook differently, I would stick to one brand, nice vid thanks, I never made IMO before but I’m guessing the thicker box of rice mabe spoiled because the center went anaerobic because it’s thicker and less oxygen maybe.

I wrote a long comment about the cooking method of long-grain rice (which is what I use most of the time, unless I'm making risotto of course) before I saw your comment. I agree - once you find the best cooking method for a type of rice, stick with that! And yes, different brands of even the same type of rice can cook up very differently - long grain rice is grown on several continents, so I'm sure the way it is grown, plant nutrition and climate would result in slightly different grains even if the genetic material the same or similar!

If you use long-grain rice, you can use 1.5 times the amount of water as you do rice (by volume!) This is how Surinamese rice is boiled to keep all the nutrients in the rice - you don't drain the rice, because you use the exact amount needed. It depends on the type of rice how much water it will absorb, so,it takes a bit of experimenting to get that perfect dry, parboiled rice you want for IMO collection (or for Surinamese cooking, which is how I learnt about this. method 😊). Directions for most types of long-grain rice: Measure out 1.5 parts water for every 1 part rice. (In cooking to eat, also add salt). Bring to a boil together, then turn down to the lowest simmer you can. (On my induction stove, that is setting 1 out of 9.) To make sure the rice is not overcooked, take 1-2 minutes off the recommended cooking time (normally, long-grain rice needs to simmer for 15 minutes, then sit for another 15 minutes in the pot before cooling). When done cooking, the rice should have absorbed all the water. If not, leave on stove the recommended number of minutes and check again. Fluff with a fork, turn off the heat, but leave the rice in the still-warm pot with the lid ON for about 15 minutes. You can keep the pot warm for these 15 minutes by putting it into an enclosed space (like a microwave) or by leaving it on the residual heat of the stove and covering the lid with a couple of pot holders or a towel or something. After 15 minutes, remove the rice from the pot and spread out on a large plate to cool. (Or, if you made it to eat: eat while still warm, of course!) Hope that helps!

Chris Trump has a whole series of videos explaining all the inputs. It is helpful to watch a few "what is KNF" (Korean Natural Farming) and "how does KNF work" type videos first, though - I initially didn't understand what all the different ferments and wild yeast collections are for! But there are lots of introductory videos on the topic, and also videos on what each type of natural input does for your plants. The cool thing is, though, that once you wrap your head around it, you can make all these low-cost inputs yourself - no more trips to buy fertilizer!

We don't use white sugar or the convential brown sugar which is just white sugar with molasses added back. The best is raw sugar cane, jaggery, sucanat. Raw brown sugar has trace minerals and nutrients that help nourish and select for healthy microbial communities.
