Why is there lye in the ume? Is that because of where you purchased it?

Can i change alcohol with wine or whiskey?

[@oyatsulabasmr6680]

I think you'd better use vodka instead of wine or whiskey as wine or whiskey has strong flavor and could leave some flavor on plums!

[@abigailheriyantisanchez6323]

@@oyatsulabasmr6680 ok, thank you

Can I use medical alcohol 76% ?

[@Levi-he6nj]

I don't think you should do that. If it's not consumable. Then absolutely not.

OMG! I forgot the alcohol😱 you think it will still work?

[@oyatsulabasmr6680]

We used alcohol to prevent from getting moldy as the salt concentration is a bit low. If you concerns about get moldy, I think it is better to add more salt, to make it 20% weight in total of Ume and then gently mix the ume and juice (ume vinegar) everyday! If you add more salt (20% weight of Ume) , it is going to be too salty when you eat. So soak ume into water before having and then it should be ok!
