All samples were investigated for methanol content and, while quantities varied depending on the fermentation process, the amounts of methanol determined were statistically significant. The results showed a clear trend of increasing amounts of methanol; the longer it was fermented, the higher amount of methanol it gained. The appropriate distillation temperature was at 85 ℃ examined from a fermented sample which had the highest level of methanol. As a part of this research, a workshop was conducted for distillers on skill development and knowledge promotion for rice wine, rice whisky and safe wine manufacturer. This included a campaign to promote safer rice wine distillation process wherein alcohol content does not exceed 15%. An evaluation at the completion of the workshop indicated that the participants had gained knowledge and understanding, satisfaction, and knowledge utilization.展开更多
