Are you sure[edit]

Are you sure nu'er hong (女儿红) is both classified as the high grade Shaoxing wine and the lower grade Huadiao jiu? It is listed in 2 places? Or am I reading the pronounciations wrong and nü'er hong is not the same as nu'er hong? Benjwong (talk) 21:25, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

All I said was that the name of this wine should not be removed from the article, as it is a well known variety of Shaoxing/huangjiu. Badagnani (talk) 21:44, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was thinking THE shaoxing wine should not be mixed with regular wine from shaoxing. I don't know if you get what I am trying to say. Like people call a number of things "shaoxing wine", but there really is a 1 and only. At least that is how I interpret it. Benjwong (talk) 21:49, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Whatever the case, there's no brand name "Shaoxing wine"; it's a style. Nü'er hong should be restored to the article; if your sources show it to have a different description, then fix the description rather than blanking it (originally without comment). Badagnani (talk) 23:00, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If nu'er hong/nü'er hong (女儿红/女兒紅) is all the same thing, then it is already in the right place in the article under Huadiao jiu. Benjwong (talk) 19:34, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mention of Nü'er hong should not have been blanked from the "Huangjiu" article, which is the overall heading for all fermented (i.e., non-distilled) wines in China. Please restore it. Badagnani (talk) 19:39, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What do you mean? It is still in the article. Nothing was deleted. Benjwong (talk) 19:48, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I seem to remember it had been deleted earlier. Badagnani (talk) 20:15, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ancient Korean equivalent?[edit]

According to this Korean news source, Munjong of Joseon drank an alcoholic drink very similar to yellow-ish rice wine like a variety of Chinese huangjiu. Komitsuki (talk) 14:15, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Photo for Hong lu jiu is actually for a Japanese cooking wine[edit]

I have deleted <sup>[http://microbiology.scu.edu.tw/lifescience/wong1/year93/images/22111_b.jpg photo]</sup>. The external link was dead, and when I found the archived url, the photo is not for Chinese cooking wine discussed here. The label on the bottle in the picture says it's a Japanese cooking wine for steamed fish produced by Wadakan Co. --Omotecho (talk) 22:21, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sake fermentation[edit]

Hi! There are some large errors regarding sake fermentation. Sake is brewed in a style called multiple parallel fermentation, where the mold Aspergillus oryzae (grown on steamed rice) and yeast (usually Kumamoto Kobo, #9) are added to the mash. This means that Aspergillus oryzae produces sugars whilst the yeast converts those sugars to ethanol^[1]. Thus, Sake is not brewed by first converting starch to sugar and then brewed. That style (2 phases) is more representative of beermaking. MacArthur Jr. (talk) 08:00, 5 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! This page is for huangjiu, the traditional Chinese rice wine, and not sake, the Japanese type. This would fit better on the talk page for Sake. Cheers! –Azpineapple (talk) 07:17, 13 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification needed.[edit]

In the first paragraph, the line" Huangjiu is brewed by mixing boiled grains including rice, glutinous rice or millet with qū as starter culture, followed by saccharification and fermentation at around 13–18 °C (55–64 °F) for fortnights" is unclear and seems to be in need of a rewrite.

Does this mean that the wine is brewed for several weeks/months or two weeks? In the second case it should end in: "a fortnight". I would do it myself but I cannot find the original source. Ragagama (talk) 03:16, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
