Lactobacillus Plantarum 299v Lactobacillus Plantarum has been in the human diet for over 1.5 million years as we have evolved. It is a symbiotic organism that helps us digest our food and is found naturally on many vegetables and plants we eat today as in the past. Lactobacillus plantarum is a species within the genus Lactobacillus. There are 100's of plantarum species. In the early 1990's a company in Sweden called Probi-Digestis isolated a mega strain, that was found in all healthy patients but low in all unhealthy patients. It took them 299 tries to get it right. LP299V is a strain of lactobacillus plantarum and a registered trademark of Probi-Digestis. The discovery and characterization of LP299V is based on the work of over 200 researchers and documented in more than 100 publications. The characteristics of LP299V have been investigated in vitro, in vivo and in more than 50 human clinical studies in which several important effects on human health have been proven. See some of those studies here. Mud Application It's not just for your insides. Use the fermented Makgeolli rice as a mud application. Kojic acid for whitening Anti-inflammatory properties Lactic acid for exfoliation and moisturizing Prevents aging by protecting protein-producing skin cells F.A.Q. How much alcohol is produced? Your brew produces a small amount of alcohol during the fermentation process. As the yeast consumes the natural sugars in rice, alcohol is produced as a by-product. The amount of alcohol produced will vary, but will be in the range of 4-6%. Dilute to taste. The fermentation bag is expanding? Fermentation is a metabolic process that converts sugars to acids, gases and/or alcohol. During this process, carbon dioxide is generated causing the bag to inflate. Vent regularly or leave a small gap on the zipper. Is the fermentation bag safe? Home Brew Probiotic's fermentation bag is produced using only USDA Food Grade materials. It is free from BPA and other harmful components. The brew is a cloudy white, is this normal? Yes. Unlike more refined rice wine beverages like Japanese Sake, Makgeolli is raw and unfiltered. The result is a cloudy beverage that tastes similar to Sake. The cloudyness is a result of all that rich probiotic goodness. When the sediment settles, you should shake up the bag. Sweeteners and flavors: What is secondary fermentation? If you add a sweetener or flavoring to your finished Makgeolli, be mindful that sugars are fermentable. This can produce more alcohol. Brewers typically engage a secondary fermentation to produce bubbles and effervescence. If you engage in secondary fermentation, they suggest that you transfer the Makgeolli to a glass jar with a tight lid, to contain the gas. At this point it is an experiment and whatever happens is on you. How long will my Makgeolli last? The unopened kit will have an indefinite shelf life. Once brewed, Makgeolli's maximum probiotic potency diminishes past 30 days. They suggest that you refrigerate the Makgeolli after primary fermentation is complete, typically, af
