How do you measure the alcohol content of home made sake/rice wine?
When making sake or korean rice wine, you use a fungurs (koji or nuruk) that will convert the starches of the rice to sugar, at the same time the sugar is being converted to alcohol by the yeasts. A regular wine/beer hydrometer will not work, since you are unable to take a initial gravity reading. What would be the best way to estimate/measure the ABV% once it is finished?
