I've been researching the last couple of months on sake brewing. It's something I've been interested in for a while, I have a couple of friends that drink it and they are encouraging me, so why not?
I googled quite a lot of results regarding sake brewing, most that make it look much easier than it should be. From a few good sites I've developed a recipe and brewing schedule/plan. The whole process takes about 7-8 weeks, a whole load of steps, a bit of forward planning and patience. However, it actually turns out to be very cheap; the ingredients for my first batch (10L, 20%ABV) should cost me about $20.
I'm going to update my blog with what I'm doing and hopefully afterwards I will publish a bit of a guide with pictures, etc.
Currently there is a big spiel of an introduction to sake which hopefully some people may find interesting.
Cheers

PS: I've posted this under the AG section as it is all-grain (rice) brewing, and the long, involved process I will be doing is more suited to those AG brewers with the patience and dedication to producing quality product.
