| California Fruit Grower: Many l,l-
provements have been made in cidar
presses in the last few years, and now
NJ. Pasteur has discovered a vastly sup
ericr method of preparing the beverage
after it comes from the press. By the
improved method cider is rendered 50
pure and free from active germs Of fer
mentation that it can be kept for years
i'll a perfect state even with very low
per cent. of alcohol. The cider is taken
fresh from the press or after fermenta-
ton in tanks, as may be desired. The
skum is removed as long as it continues
to rise to the surface or until fermenta-
ton has proceeded sufficiently far. 1t
is then run through paper filters and is
conducted TO u coil Of block tin, which
is surrounded by hot water or steam
kept ut temperature of between 149
and 100 degrees f.
From here the cidar flows through the
remaining portion of the coil, which is
surrounded by cold water and is so ar
ranged that the heat is taken from the
cluar before it is conducted into the
| barrels in which it is to be stored. AT
ter a barrel has been filed great caution
is exercised in excluding the air. The
bung is driven tight and a coat of thick
yarnish is applied to the entire barrel
The cidar will then by slow teTmenta-
ton gather flavor and carbonic acid gas,
and will soon be ripe enough for use.
If wanted for immediate use, the fat
ness in taste can be overcome by the
Introduction Of liquid carbonic acid gas
from a cylinder, before or after the
cidar has been drawn from the barrel
when it win be found that the natural
flavor has been restored Cidar made IN
this way is simply the plain juice Of the
apple, without the introduction of GrugS'
gelatines or albuminous compounds Of
any kind, and it has all the brlllaneg'
bouquet and flavor which are so much
desired.
