The Rice Grains Won’t Stick To The Cloth

regular cloth vs tetron cloth

The best feature of this cloth is that it is very hard for rice to stick to. Since you don’t have to clean the sticky rice from the cloth, it would save so much time during the koji-making process.

Ideal For Adjusting Humidity of Steamed Rice

During the warming period of koji, wrap and cover the rice with a tetron cloth, then cover it again with a bleached cotton cloth (double wrapping) to adjust the humidity of koji. The inner tetron layer has almost no water absorption and the outer cotton layer moderately prevents condensation and doesn’t absorb too much moisture. This technique is great for humidity and temperature adjustment when propagating koji on steamed rice grains.
