Uncooked rice Tackju was prepared from the groud rice with different particle size such as 12, 20, 35 and 50 mesh, and its characteristics were analysed during the brewing. Reducing sugar and ethanol contents as well as yeast cell counts were the highest in main mash and Tackju prepared from 20 mesh fraction. Especially, reducing sugar content was about. 1.5-2.5 times as much as that obtained from 35 or 50 mesh fraction. The final concentration of ethanol in main mash prepared from 20 mesh fraction was 14.8%(v/v). It was about 1.5%(v/v) higher than the lowest one [13.35%(v/v)] which was prepared from 12 mesh fraction. No significant difference In total acidity was observed. Sensory evaluation revealed 20 or 35 mesh Tackju to be the best in overall preference, especially in sweet and refreshing tastes.
