A43774 Aphorisms upon the new way of improving cyder, or making cyder-royal lately discovered for the good of those kingdoms and nations that are beholden to others, and pay dear for wine ... : to which are added, certain expedients concerning raising and planting of apple-trees, gooseberry-trees, &c. with respect to cheapness, expedition, certain growing, and fruitfulness, beyond what hath hitherto been yet made known / by Richard Haines.

from_o it_o as_o oft_o as_o it_o be_v rack_v let_v not_o your_o vessel_n be_v full_a by_o a_o gallon_n nor_o yet_o stop_v close_o until_o by_o draw_v it_o off_o it_o be_v make_v to_o leave_v huz_v

hundred_o weight_n will_v make_v 16_o gallon_n and_o so_o proportionable_o but_o before_o you_o put_v your_o sugar_n into_o the_o kettle_n take_v the_o white_n of_o 30_o or_o 40_o egg_n the_o more_o the_o better_o which_o be_v well_o beat_v with_o a_o thing_n like_o a_o rod_n or_o whisk_n in_o eight_o or_o ten_o gallon_n of_o water_n than_o put_v 4_o gallon_n of_o this_o egg-water_n so_o prepare_v into_o your_o kettle_n or_o vessel_n where_o your_o sugar_n be_v to_o be_v dissolve_v then_o hang_v it_o over_o a_o gentle_a fire_n and_o stir_v it_o about_o until_o it_o be_v dissolve_v

way_n canary_n now_o the_o use_n of_o these_o egg_n be_v only_o to_o raise_v such_o a_o scum_n as_o will_v carry_v away_o not_o only_o all_o the_o foulness_n and_o grossness_n of_o the_o sugar_n but_o all_o the_o egg_n also_o and_o when_o the_o scum_n have_v do_v rise_v and_o be_v clean_o take_v off_o then_o fill_v up_o your_o kettle_n with_o as_o much_o water_n as_o will_v make_v up_o your_o

in_o a_o fine_a linen_n rag_n whilst_o it_o be_v boiling_n will_v give_v it_o a_o fine_a grateful_a scent_n of_o these_o sweet_n you_o may_v put_v in_o 2_o or_o 3_o gallon_n more_o or_o lest_o into_o a_o hogshead_n as_o your_o pallate_n invite_v you_o or_o as_o the_o tartness_n of_o the_o cider_n require_v but_o put_v they_o not_o in_o till_o you_o have_v rack_v your_o cider_n the_o last_o time_n and_o that_o it_o be_v pass_v the_o fermentation_n in_o and_o before_o you_o put_v your_o sweet_n into_o the_o cask_n mix_v your_o sweet_n and_o the_o spirit_n you_o intend_v to_o put_v in_o together_o with_o a_o like_a quantity_n of_o cider_n and_o stir_v they_o well_o together_o then_o put_v all_o into_o your_o cask_n of_o cider_n and_o stir_v they_o with_o all_o your_o strength_n with_o a_o strong_a staff_n in_o the_o bunghole_n for_o one_o half_a quarter_n of_o a_o hour_n after_o that_o stop_v it_o close_o and_o draw_v none_o off_o till_o 2_o 3_o or_o 4_o month_n by_o which_o time_n it_o will_v be_v answerable_a to_o what_o have_v be_v propose_v only_o remember_v that_o if_o you_o will_v have_v it_o to_o resemble_v canary_n you_o must_v add_v the_o great_a proportion_n of_o spirit_n and_o sweet_n but_o if_o french-wine_n than_o the_o less_o sweet_n or_o none_o at_o all_o as_o to_o the_o sort_n of_o sugar_n if_o the_o sweet_n be_v make_v with_o white_a the_o cider_n will_v remain_v pale_a if_o of_o brown_a sugar_n it_o will_v raise_v it_o to_o a_o high_a colour_n use_v and_o in_o my_o opinion_n the_o latter_a be_v as_o good_a as_o well_o be_v the_o cheap_a since_o the_o course_v by_o the_o aforesaid_a preparation_n become_v as_o pure_a as_o the_o fine_a and_o sweet_n be_v thus_o make_v will_v cost_v but_o 5_o d._n per_fw-la quart_n and_o thus_o every_o

the_o bitter_a sharp_a crabb_n be_v much_o better_a than_o a_o bitter_a sweet-apple_n because_o the_o juice_n of_o the_o first_o will_v afford_v twice_o as_o much_o spirit_n as_o the_o latter_a nor_o
