LAB, rice wash
First time trying this, not sure if this is alright. After watching Chris Trump and a few others my 3 day old rice wash has a white layer on top of it. Chris Trump's didn't look like anything was on top, another one I watched said that there should be a thin layer on top. My layer looks much thicker and I'm wondering if this is OK or should I throw it out and try again.
Everyone says that it should smell sweet. Mine just smells about like rice when it's cooking.

If you reduce the amount of hash you consume in order to preserve your glass you've missed the whole point.
The hash is more important than the glass.

Re: LAB, rice wash
I'm just trying to get some of this KNF stuff figured out before my next run. Anything I do between now and then is how much playing I'm gonna do.
Ok, since it doesn't smell sour I'm going to go ahead and add the culture to some milk tonight. What's the worst that can happen? I have to throw it out and start over.

Re: LAB, rice wash
The wife wanted rice for dinner that night so I cooked it after doing the wash.
I am thinking about doing some IMO next though. Going to have to get something to make sure critters don't get at the rice first.
