A67797	Cerevisiarii comes, or, The new and true art of brewing, illustrated by various examples in making beer, ale and other liquors, so that they may be most durable, brisk and fragrant and how they may be so ordered, as to yeild the greatest quantity of spirits in distillation : to which is added, the right way to refine and bottle beer and cyder, and a cure for those that are sick and ropy, so as to return them to their internal sanity, as also the true method of manuring lands and the art of making salt water fresh : all proved by demonstration and sound philosophy, to be more agreeable to man's body than otherwise, and so not only fit for english constitutions, but also for transportation : published for the sake of verity, and therefore recommeded to all that esteem demonstrated truths before notional theory / by W.Y.

vi_o in_o which_o we_o treat_v concern_v the_o make_n of_o several_a physical_a drink_n together_o with_o their_o use_n and_o virtue_n show_v the_o right_a way_n of_o bottle_a beer_n as_o to_o the_o way_n of_o make_v physical_a drink_n they_o be_v varirious_a some_o be_v make_v from_o herb_n other_o by_o the_o spirit_n thereof_o exalt_v other_o by_o their_o essential_a salt_n and_o their_o essence_n exalt_v which_o indeed_o be_v the_o most_o superior_a way_n but_o see_v that_o every_o brewer_n and_o good_a housewife_n can_v obtain_v these_o we_o shall_v prescribe_v such_o as_o be_v of_o more_o easy_a preparation_n we_o see_v that_o beer_n make_v from_o cypress_n cedar_n sassafrax_n wormwood_n scurveygrass_n elder_a mint_n balm_n etc._n etc._n be_v high_o esteem_v especial_o pearl_n and_o scurvygrass_n here_o in_o england_n but_o here_o be_v one_o thing_n which_o i_o can_v omit_v which_o be_v this_o they_o take_v the_o herb_n at_o any_o season_n with_o the_o gross_a and_o more_o

more_o which_o may_v be_v say_v of_o the_o like_a nature_n we_o shall_v recommend_v three_o thing_n to_o the_o consideration_n of_o every_o honest_a brewer_n whereby_o this_o defect_n may_v in_o

their_o terrene_a one_o by_o the_o beer_n or_o liquor_n shall_v be_v extract_v therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v well_o pound_v and_o macerate_v and_o in_o a_o small_a bag_n put_v into_o the_o

it_o be_v about_o two_o gallon_n to_o a_o barrel_n of_o strong_a beer_n but_o if_o the_o juice_n be_v styptic_a eit_a or_o astringent_a then_o will_v a_o small_a quantity_n serve_v you_o may_v also_o
