Yakju is the clear wine taken from a rice mash fermented with nuruk, the Korean wheat-cake starter, and yeast. Steamed rice, water and nuruk ferment for about two weeks, often with more rice added in later stages, and only the clear wine is kept, not the cloudy mash. It is stronger than makgeolli, about 15 % alcohol or more.
Amounts from a sourceA laboratory yakju batch from Kang and colleagues (2018), built on 492 g of steamed rice. Household and brewery recipes vary, and Korean wines range from single to fourth brews.

Yakju is the clear wine taken from a rice mash fermented with nuruk, the Korean wheat-cake starter, and yeast. Steamed rice, water and nuruk ferment for about two weeks, often with more rice added in later stages, and only the clear wine is kept, not the cloudy mash. It is stronger than makgeolli, about 15 % alcohol or more. Made in 5 steps over 12 months. The longest step, age (some wines), takes 12 months (Kang J.E 2018) and runs at 45 °C (Kang J.E 2018). Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the main alcohol-making yeast and Aspergillus oryzae, a mould isolated from traditional nuruk for cheongju brewing and chosen for its enzyme activity do most of the fermenting.
Yakju comes from the same kind of nuruk mash as makgeolli, but only the clear wine is taken, not the cloudy mash. It can be brewed in more stages and ends about twice as strong.
Two-stage house brew (gayangju)A seed mash of 1 kg rice cake, 7 L water and 1.0 kg nuruk ferments about 36 h at 25 °C, then cools; 8 kg of steamed glutinous rice is added for 48 h at 25 °C, and it matures 35 days at 15 °C before cloth filtering, reaching 19.2 % alcohol. Song and colleagues call it a makgeolli.

Baekseju (Korean herbal rice wine)백세주
Alcoholic drinks from Korea
Baekseju is a factory yakju made from raw, unsteamed rice flour, and it is flavoured with twelve dried herbs. Yakju is otherwise made from steamed rice.
The Korean Food Code lists yakju among its fermented liquors and sets methanol at 0.5 mg/mL or less. For unpasteurised takju and yakju it tests E. coli on a five-sample plan (n=5, c=2, m=0, M=10); for pasteurised ones it tests coliforms on the same plan.
More than 200 alcoholic drinks are described in Korean books of the 17th to 19th centuries, brewed in one to four stages. Japanese brewers industrialised rice wine in the late 19th century and brought pure-culture methods to Korea.
