Add the rice to the jar, ensuring it is completely submerged.

Seal the jar tightly.
Place the jar in a bowl of 80°C water and leave it there.
Let ferment for 2 to 3 days, until the mẻ is ready. If you use an oven to maintain 80°C continuously, it will be ready in 9 hours.
Notes
Mẻ should be opaque white.
It should taste pleasantly sour with a soft texture.
If the mẻ is watery or smells alcoholic, the batch has failed.
