CORDIALS In making Cordials the manufacturer must practice the following rules: First. Be careful to use a pure first class spirit, well-clean- ed from its essential oils. Second. Let the time of previous digestion be proportioned [ to the tenacity of the ingredients, or the heaviness of the oil. ij Third. Have a due proportion of spirit, the grosser and I less fragrant parts of the oil not giving the spirit so agreeable a flavor and at the same time rendering it thick and unsightly. This may, in a great measure be effected by leaving out the feints, and making up to proof with fine soft water in their stead. Sometimes it is necessary to filter cordials. This is easi- ly done by running it through a cloth. If fining should be required, add about six eggs to the barrel. Syrup for cordials is made in the same way as simple syrup for which see receipt under the heading of ''Syrups." 42 THE COMPLETE BARTENDER AKXLSEEB CORDIAL- To 15 gallons of pure rectified whiskey add 2 Vj drachms <){ oil of Anniseseed cut in alcohol, 10 gallons of ^oft clear water, 4 gallons of simple syrup; mix well together, and let it lie from 10 to 12 days, it will be then ready for use CINNAMON CORDIAL' To 12 gallons of pure rectified whiskey add 4 drachms of oil of Cinnamon cut in alcohol, 6 gallons of clear soft water, and 3 gallons of simple syrup, mix well and let stand for about 12 days.

Mix, put in a clean cask, bung tightly and leave for 8 weeks; and then bottle. HOW TO FIME OR CLEAR WIME. Take 3 table spoonsfuls of boiled rice, the white of i egg, and y^ ounce of burnt alum in powder. Mix with a pint of Wine, then pour the Wine thus mixed into the cask, and stir with a stick, but not to agitate the sediment or lees. As soon as wines are clear and bright after being fined down, they ought to be racked into a clean cask, the cask to be filled up and bunged tight. HOW TO RACK WIJ^ES- This is an operation highly requisite to the keeping of wine good, and is performed by drawing off the wine into another cask and leaving the lees in the first cask, A siphon should be used ; but if not, the cask should be tapped 2 or 3 days previously. The racking off ought to be performed in temperate weather, and as soon as the wine appears clear, a- second racking will give it a brilliant appearance, and so fining will not be necessary. BOTTIIJVG WIJVES. Clear and fine weather is the time for bottling all kinds of wine. The wines should be fine and brilliant when you intend 4^ THE COMPLETE BARTENDER to bottle them, as they never become so after bottling. White Wines should always go through a process of fining. For one hogshead (or any quantity in proportion, more or less), take 2 ounces of Isinglass and dissolve it in one quart of water, and mix with two quarts of the wine Red wines are fined by beat- ing to a froth the white of 7 eggs, and mixing them with three times the bulk of water ; then adding 2 quarts of the wine, mix well, and pour into i barrel of your wine. Bj sure that your bottles are clean and diy. Use a light mallet in pounding in the corks, as a heavy one is apt to crack the bottle. After the wine is bottled, it should be stored in a cool cel- lar. Place the bottles on their sides in saw-dust; on no ac- count let them stand on their bottoms. CIDERp THE BEST WAY TO MA MAGE CIDER. When you bottle Cider in warm weather, do not cork it im- mediately, but let it stand two or three days, so that it may become flat. If the cider should happen to be too flat when you are about to bottle it, put a small lump of rock candy and four or five raisins in each bottle, but do not do this unless you are going to use it shortly. Cider should be well corked and waxed, and stood upright in a cool place. To fine and improve the flavor of i hogshead, take i gallon THE COMPLETE BARTENDER 47 of good brandy, j4 onnce of Cochineal, i pound of alum, and 3 pounds of rock candy. Bruise them well in a mortar and add them to the brandy, letting stand for two days ; then mix the whole with the cider, and bung up the cask tightly and let remain for about six months ; if fine enough then, bottle it. CHEAP CIDER FROM RAISIJ^S. Take seven pounds of raisins and wash them well in four or five waters, until perfectly clean, then put them into a cask with the head out, and pour three gallons of water on them ; after which cover up well and let stand for 8 days. At the end of that time rack the liquid off into another cask, let it stand for about five days, when it will be ready for use TO KEEP CIDER GOOD FOR YEARS. Take the cider when you think it will suit your taste, put it into a clean kettle, then take ^ of a pound of hops, put them in a bag and tie them to the handle of the kettle so as they will hang down inside, but not touch the bottom of the kettle Put the cider on the fire and let it boil a short time, scumming it whilst boiling; then let it cool and pour it into a cask, adding T pint of fresh brandy. Bung up tightly. This cider, so pre- pared, will keep for years. PREPARED CIDER FOR IMITATING WIJ^ES. Take the cider when it suits your taste, and put it into a good strong barrel, and add 3 gallons of Apple Whiskey and a small quantity of mustard seeds ; bung up tight and let ferment. In a day or so bore a gimlet hole in the bung, and put a spile into it, so as you can let some of the gas out, so as to prevent the barrel burbting. When fermentation is done, draw off, and clean out the barrel, then put the cider in again, and bung it up close 48 THE COMPLETE BARTENDER. imitations of Whisl(ies, Brandies, Gin, Rums.

It is made in this manner : Take 4 pounds of brown sugar, boil it well and burn it so that it will taste bitter? thin n with water while on the fire, pouring in but a little at a time, and keep stirring all the time. If you pour too much in at a time, it will explode, and may burn you After you have thinned it down to its proper consistency, strain it while warm. COOLING WINEH. Always ice white wines in summer, if the weather be hot; but with red wines this must not be regarded, as a great degree of cold is apt to affect their flavor. If your cellar be of the requisite degree of coldness, say 52° and the thermometer stand it 70°, the wine is full cold enough to be grateful; and, brought directly from the cellar to the guest, (which it should always be at that season,) the outside of the bottle will be clouded, a sure test that the wine is sufficiently cold. Where ice is not obtainable the bottle may be hung up in .a flannel bag, previously soaked in water in the full glare of the sun's ray-^, where there is also a strong draft of air. The constant evaporation keeping the bag dripping wet, will cpol the wine 52 THE COMPLETE BARTENDER. almost to the freezing point. The water of a covered well or spring, drawn fresh, in wiiich a pound or two of salt is thrown, placed in a cool cellar, will reduce the temperature of wine to a very low and agreeable point. FREEZIJ^'G MlXTURE^ If expense be no object in cooling wmes, etc., freezing mix- tures may be used as follows: Eleven parts of Sal Ammoniac, dry and powdered, ten parts of nitre, sixteen parts of Glauber's salts and thirty two parts of water, will cool wine sufficiently in any climate — observing that the operation should be carried on la tue coldest place possi- ble.

HIJ^TS OK BOTTLIKa MALT LIQUORS- I There can be no doubt that all fermented malt liquors, as ( well as wine, are improved by bottling, when the work is per- , formed with sufficient care and skill ; but there are several con- ) siderations requisite to success which we shall now.bring under the notice of our readers. THE STATE OF LIQUOR AT TEE TIME OF BOTTLIKG. The fermentation of the liquor should be nearly completed ; if not, there will be a risk of bursting the bottles, in conse- quence of the generation of too large a quantity of air. On the other hand, if the fermentation be over, and the liquor be flat, the beer will become more or less sour. The mode of judging as to the fitness of the hquor tor bottling, is to ascertain its con- dition in the cask. If, on drawing the vent-peg, the liquor spurts out with violence, it is certain that the process of fermen- tation is still gomg on; on the other hand, if it appears to be still, and on being tasted is in good condition and brisk, it may be held to be in a fit state for bottling. If, however, it be too 5<3 THE COMPLETE BARTENDER brisk and frothy while botthng, the bottles ought to be left un- corked for a few hours, and filled out. They should only be filled up as the froth works within an inch of the cork. CORKS FOR BOTTLIKG^ There is indeed no economy in bad corks. If Ihey are not sufficiently sound, and allow the air to escape, the liquor be- comes flat, and consequently sour ; and the bottles might nearly as well be le/t open. The corks should be so .ked in the liquor before being put into the bottles, and if the bottles be then laid on their sides, the corks will swell so as to be perfectly tight. It need hardly be added that great care should be taken that the bottles have been thoroughly washed, and are perfectly clean. TO RIP EM ALE OR PORTER. If not flat when bottled, there are several ways, among which the following may be recommended : When about to fill the bottles, put into each a teaspoonful of brown sugar, or two tea- spoonfuls of rice or wheat, or six raisins. BOTTLE WAX- To make good bottle wax, take i pound of rosin, i pound of beeswax and half a pound of tallocv. Mix tliese with red or yellow ochre, soot or Spanish whiting, according to the color you require. Melt the whole carefully, stirring it all the time If it be likely to boil over, stir it with a candle end, which will allay the violence of the ebullition. THE COMPLETE BARTENDER. 5/ STAJSTDS FOR CASKS- AM casks containing beer, ale, wine or any other liquors, ought to be placed on strong elevated stands or trussels. They should be so situated as not to touch any part of the walls of the cellar or store room in which they are placed. When they are near the walls they arc' liable to be attacked by dry-rot, which leads to the bursting of the casks and the loss of their contents. The tressels ought to be at such a distance from the wall that one may be able to go round them and examine their condition; when this, from the position of the barrel is impos- sible, it will be found a great inconvenience, should any leak- age take place. BEST MEAJVS OF CLFAXIMG UTEMSELS Always keep your glasses, decanters and bottles well cleaned and pure. Immediately after the customer has finished his drink, wash tlie glass well in warm water, rinse well in pure cold water, and then dry thoroughly with a cloth. In cleansing utensils used for brewing, etc., be careful not ,' to use soap or any greasy material — a good brush and scalding water will generally thoroughly cleanse them, but all the fur on the sides and bottom must be removed. After this they should be well drained, and left in some airy situation to sweeten. If ihey are still found to be tainted, take wood ashes and boil them to a strong ley, which spread over the bottoms of the ves- sels scalding hot — then scrub with a brush or throw some stone limt into water in the vessel, and scrub over the bottom and and sides, rinsing well with clear water. 58 THE COMPLETE BARTENDER. In some cases it is necessary to wash with oil of vitriol, dilu- ted with eight times its bulk in water. MAKAGEMLKT OF CASKS FOR WIME AJ^D BEER. New casks, fresh from the Coopers should stand 2 or 3 days filled with clean cold water, and then be well scalded out be- fore using. Old casks, as soon as the wine or beer is drawn off, should either be bunged closely until there is a convenient opportunity for washing them, or scalded out at once and laid by in a dry place until they are again wanted. Just before using they must be looked to and scalded out again. If the casks are very musty, they may be sweetened by wash- ing them out first with a little sulphuric acid and then with clean water. After this operation they should be scalded several times with fresh water. If the casks are very large, the ex- pense of sulphuric acid may be avoided by unheading them and whitewashing them throughout with quick- lime, or they can be rendered perfectly sweet by being smoked with sulphur mixed with a little nitrate of potash. In all these cases, great care must be taken that the casks are well scalded with clean water. It is a good plan to use a piece of clean iron chain to shake about inside the cask while washing it out. A METHOD OF BOTTLIXG WIjYE, Having thoroughly washed and dried the bottles, supposing they have been before used for the same kind of wine, provide corks, which will be improved by being slightl}^ boiled, or at THE COMPLETE BARTENDER. 59 ast steeped in hot water — a wooden mallet, a bottling boot, id a squeezer for the corks. Bore a hole in the lower part of ^ ne cask with a gimlet, receiving the liquid stream which fol- ws in the bottle and filterer, which is placed in a tub or basin. his operation is best performed by two persons, one to draw e wine, the other to cork the bottles. The drawer is to see lat the bottles are up to the mark, but not too full, the bottles »eing placed in a clean tub to prevent waste. The corking ooot is to be buckled by a strap to the knee, the bottle placed in it, and the cork, after being squeezed in the press, driven in by a fiat wooden mallet. As the wine draws near to the bottom of the cask, a thick piece of muslin must be placed in the strainer^ to prevent the viscous grounds from passing into the bottle. Having counted the bottles, they should be stored away in their respective bins, a layer of sand or sawdust being placed under the first tier, and another over it ; a second tier laid over this protected by a lath, the head of the second being laid to the bottom of the first ; over this another bed of sawdust must be laid, not too thick ; another lath, and so on, till the bin is filled. Wine so la:d in will be ready for nse according to its quaUty and age, Port wine old in the wood, will be ready to drink in live or six months ; but if it is a fruity wine, it will improve every year. Sherry if of good quality, will be fit to drink as soon as the "sickness" (as its first condition after bottling is called) ceases, and will also improve ; but the cellar must be ikept at a perfectly, steady temperature, neither to hot nor to cold 6o THE COMPLETE BARTENDER but about 55 or 60 degrees, and absolutely free from draughts of cold air HOW TO CLEAK DECAMTERS. Roll up in small pieces some soft brown or blotting-paper ; wet tbem^ and soap them well. Put them into the decanters', about one-quarter full of warm water; shake them well for a few minutes, then rinse with clear cold water ; wipe the out- sidss with a dry cloth, put the decanters to drain, and when dry they will be almost as bright as new ones. This is the best and safest mode of cleaning decanters. Some persons, however, use a little fine sand, and others egg-shells crushed into small pieces, which are shaken about in . the glass with cold water ; a beautiful polish may be given by this means. HOW TO LOOSEK TIGHT DECAJfTER STOPPERS. Stoppers of glass decanters frequently from a variety of causes, become so fixed that they cannot be removed without danger. Whenever this is the case place a little sweet oil with a feather round the stopper and the neck of the decanter, and set it near the fi^re. When tolerably warm tap the stopper gently on all sides with a light piece of wood, and it will soon become loose, or the neck of the decanter may be rubbed , sharply with a piece of muslin ; the fric!tion will expand the glass of the decanter, and in this way set the stopper free. Great care must be taken that the stopper is not broken. THE COMPLETE BARTENDER. 6i \'. : FIJVrJ^GS FOR WIJYE. Beat up to a froth three fresh laid eggs with their shells Draw off about a pint of the wine, and beat it with them. Draw the bung, and while the egg is frothing," stir it gently into the cask at the bunghole, using a short stick so as to dis , perse it over the whole surface of the wine. The bung may be left out for a day or two, if necessary. These finings will be more effectual if a little isinglass be dissolved in the pint of wine before it is beaten up with the eggs. PALE ALE. To make a barrel of pale ale equal to any that is brewed, use three bushels of malt, or four, if strength is desired ; eight or nine pounds of hops, according to the required degrees of bit- terness, one pound of camomile flowers, strewed in a jar and strained. Put the camomile flowers and the hops in at the same time. Boil the malt and water till the liquor begins to fine itself ; and that is the time to add the hops and flowers. BEER FR OM POTA TOES. In Silesia, they prepare a very wholesome and palatable potato-beer, by which every family can supply itself at a trifling expense Twenty-five gallons of such beer are made from half a bushel of potatoes, ten pounds, of malt, half a pound of hops, and two quarts of yeast.
