OpenCola a tutti
OpenCola ha una lattina color argento e contiene una bevanda 
molto simile a Coca-Cola e Pepsi Cola. Ma non è l'ennesimo 
tentativo di imitazione. Infatti sulla lattina c'è scritto: 
"Controllatene l'orgine su 
opencola.com
". Nella pagina web c'è 
nientemento che la segretissima riceta della cola. Per la prima 
volta nella storia, chiunque se la può fare in casa. OpenCOla è 
il primo prodotto di consumo open source (sorgente aperta) e 
chiunque può usare la ricetta, a condizione che la nuova formula 
rimanga di dominio pubblico. L'avvenimento, che ha rotto un 
tabù, ha anhce sollevato una questione politica di primo piano 
sulla proprietà della conoscenza e su come è usata.
          *  *  *
Peccato solo che poi il sito e il marchio corrispondano non giàò 
a un prodotto alimentare bensì a un motore di ricerca in 
testing...

  Disclaimer: 
  Making soft drinks is not for the faint of heart, nor the dirty of 
finger. It is a solemn enterprise not to be entered into lightly, as with 
marriage or buying used farm machinery.
With any food-prep, failure to observe basic hygienic principles, follow 
directions, and exercise common sense can have grave consequences. 
OpenCola assumes no liability for any problems that arise out of the use 
of this document. Proceed at your own risk. No one's putting a gun to 
your head, so don't bother if you can't boil water.
Improper use of cola might result in blunt trauma, puncture wounds, 
physical illness, mental illness, caffeine dependency, dental necrosis, 
acid reflux, death, devastation, and random tax audits. Or it might not.
A list of warnings has been provided below. We did not include them for 
*our* health -- we included them for *yours*. Read them. Know them. 
Follow them. Tattoo them to your backside.
Just in case you have *any* doubt: following the directions below may be 
hazardous to your health and property. You assume any and all risk 
arising from the manufacture and consumption of cola.
An important note: this is *not* the recipe for "OpenCola" -- that is, 
the canned beverage from OpenCola that you may have received at a trade 
show, or other venue or outlet. Making canned cola requires millions of 
dollars in abstruse gear and manufacturing gizmos. It's easier to make 
nerve gas than manufacture cola. This is a kitchen-sink recipe that you 
can make all on your own. It is *our* kitchen-sink recipe. We figured it 
out somewhere between coding the COLA SDK and debugging the Linux build 
of the clerver.
Anyway, we've tried to be nice about the disclaimer. If it's not good 
enough for you, here's what our lawyers have to say about the whole 
shootin' match.
By copying and/or distributing the Program, you hereby agree to the 
following: 
Indemnity: You shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless OpenCola, its 
affiliates, directors, officers, and employees from and against any 
third-party claim, demand, cause of action, debt, liability, cost or 
expense (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees) 
arising out of your use of the Recipe, or any derivative thereof, 
including, but not limited to, any claims arising from your distribution 
of soft drink based on the Recipe or any derivatives thereof.
International: OpenCola makes no representation that the Recipe, or any 
soft drink based on the Recipe or any derivatives thereof, may be 
appropriate for use in locations outside of the United States or Canada, 
and accessing them from any location where their use is illegal is 
prohibited. If you choose to access this Recipe from any location outside 
of the United States or Canada, you do so at your own risk, and are 
responsible for compliance with all local laws.

  Introduction: 
  Contained hereunder is a HOW-TO for brewing up kitchen-sink OpenCola. 
Amazingly enough, every soft-drink vendor we spoke to acted like the 
preparation of cola was some kind of deep, dark trade-seekrut™. With much 
reverse-engineering and creative shopping, the research kitchens at 
OpenCola have coopered together the following makefile for brewing up The 
Black Waters of Corporate Imperialism™ in the privacy of your own home.
The basis for the whole thing is the 7X, Top-Seekrut™ formula. Our 
sources tell us that 7X is the internal Coca-Cola codename for their 
syrup. You'll note that the 7X formula contains *eight* ingredients: 
still more evidence of the deviousness of the Soda Gnomes.
As it turns out, mixing up a batch of cola's pretty easy. Finding the 
ingredients is damned hard. Most of this file is about finding and 
handling ingredients so as to produce a tasty bevvy without blowing up 
your kitchen, melting your flesh off your bones, or poisoning yourself. 
As with all undertakings of great moment, read and understand the 
instructions before attempting to commit cola on your own. Pay special 
attention to the "Warnings" section.
This recipe is licensed under the GNU General Public license. It is "Open 
Source" Cola, or, if you prefer, "Free" Cola. That means you're free to 
use this recipe to make your own cola, or to make derivative colas. If 
you distribute derivative colas, you're expected to send email to the 
recipe's author, Amanda Foubister (
ama...@opencola.com
) with your 
updates. In the future, we expect to have a CVS server up to handle 
additions, bug-reports, etc.
 
 
  The Formula 
  7X (Top Seekrut™) flavoring formula:
3.50 ml orange oil
1.00 ml lemon oil
1.00 ml nutmeg oil
1.25 ml cassia oil
0.25 ml coriander oil
0.25 ml neroli oil
2.75 ml lime oil
0.25 ml lavender oil
10.0 g gum arabic
3.00 ml water
OpenCola syrup:
2.00 tsp. 7X formula
3.50 tsp. 75% phosphoric acid or citric acid
2.28 l water
2.36 kg plain granulated white table sugar
0.50 tsp. caffeine (optional)
30.0 ml caramel color
Preparation
7X Flavoring:
Mix oils together in a cup. Add gum arabic, mix with a spoon. Add water 
and mix well. I used my trusty Braun mixer for this step, mixing for 4-5 
minutes. You can also transfer to a blender for this step. Can be kept in 
a sealed glass jar in the fridge or at room temperature.
Please note that this mixture will separate. The Gum Arabic is essential 
to this part of the recipe, as you are mixing oil and water.
Syrup:
In a one gallon container (I used the Rubbermaid Servin' Saver Dry Food 
Keeper, 1.3 US Gal/4.92 l), take 5 mls of the 7X formula, add the 75% 
phosphoric or citric acid. Add the water, then the sugar. While mixing, 
add the caffeine, if desired. Make sure the caffeine is completely 
dissolved. Then add the caramel color. Mix thoroughly.
Cola:
To finish drink, take one part syrup and add 5 parts carbonated water.
Scavenging and Handling Ingredients
7X flavor:
Measurement: I used a dropper purchased at a Shoppers Drug Mart (normally 
used to measure infant portions of medicine, I believe).
Oils: Oils can cause skin irritation. Wear latex food-prep or surgical 
gloves. If oils come in contact with skin, wash with soap and water.
I purchased all oils from health food stores and the herbalist store, 
Thuna's (see notes on gum arabic).
Everything could have come from the herbalist's. Try for 100 percent 
pure, undiluted oils. I used oils from the following companies:
CK Products, Ft. Wayne, IN 46825 
Aura Cacia Oils, Weaverville, CA 96093 
Aromaforce Essential Oils 
Frontier Natural Flavors, 
www.frontiercoop.com
 
Karooch, Peterborough, ONT K9J 7Y8 
When I purchased the oils, I specifically asked whether they were food 
grade or not. All persons said that they were, one person said she used 
them internally all the time.
Neroli is a very expensive item, be prepared (US$48.52 for 5.00 ml).
All others were a more reasonable price (US$2-9.30).
Gum Arabic: It is very important that you get only *food-grade* Gum 
Arabic. There is also an *art-grade*, which is readily available at art 
supply stores -- *never use art-grade Gum Arabic!* Art-grade Gum Arabic 
is toxic. It will make you ill. You'll be sad. We'll be sad.
I found food-grade Gum Arabic at an herbalist store in Toronto called 
Thuna's 
(416) 461-8191
. I purchased 112g for US$12.46, which will make 
more than 11 batches of flavoring formula.
Syrup:
Water: good old tap water will do, if you trust your tap. I used spring 
water.
75% Phosphoric Acid: Due to its acidity, this product is corrosive to the 
eyes and skin. Handle with gloved hands, and use extreme caution. If 
comes in contact with the eyes or skin, immediately flush with plenty of 
water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention. Rinse any spills on 
clothing or other surfaces thoroughly. Store in a secure area. *Do not* 
store more than 50.0 ml.
Try finding phosphoric acid at a compounding pharmacy in your area. There 
are pharmacies that still mix their own individual compounds and still 
stock phosphoric acid.
Citric acid: Very easy to find. I found mine at a Shoppers Drug Mart 
(Rougier Pharma Inc, Quebec, Canada J7J 1P3). Says right on the label, 
"For the preparation of acidulous drinks and effervescing draughts, and 
preservation of jams and jellies." According to the Coke history book, 
citric acid was used first in the formula, but they now use the 
phosphoric.
Sugar: Basic granulated white table sugar found everywhere. Buy from a 
bulk store to save some money.
Caffeine: It's best not to store caffeine in *any* amount. Caffeine can 
kill people in relatively small doses. The median lethal dose for an 
adult human is around 10 grams, or approximately one third of an ounce. 
You can find out more by reading the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) 
for caffeine at 
http://www.jtbaker.com/msds/c0165.htm
. Don't yield to the 
temptation to create a "Super-Jolt™" adding tons and tons of the white 
stuff to you cola, our you'll be in a world of hurt. If stored, store in 
a secure area away from children. Toxic by inhalation and ingestion: If 
inhaled, remove to fresh air. If ingested, call a physician. Possible 
teratogen and mutagen. If product comes in contact with the eyes, flush 
with plenty of water. There is some great information on caffeine and 
it's over-consumption at 
http://www.thecaffeinepage.com
Caffeine is completely optional. I used part of a caffeine pill (MVP, 
www.mvpnutrition.com
), ground up in a pestle with a mortar. According to 
information on the pill bottle and on the Web site, the pills are 100% 
caffeine. As an extra safety precaution, I strained all of the syrup 
through a 4-ply of cheesecloth, in case any of the caffeine wasn't 
dissolved.
Caramel color: I found mine at a bakery supply store (World of Cake 
Decorating, 1766 Weston Road, Toronto, Ontario, Canada 
416-247-4935
). I 
was originally told to use double strength caramel color, but couldn't 
find it anywhere (retail or wholesale). It really only adds color, so it 
makes it a bit paler than we are used to coming out of a can or bottle. 
No other difference that we could discern during our taste-testing.
Cola:
Soda Water: I purchased a soda charger and CO2 cartridges at Nikolaou's 
(629 Queen Street West, Toronto, Ontario, Canada 
416-504-6411
) to deliver 
the soda charge needed to make the cola fizzy. At testing, no one was 
impressed. What worked best was adding canned sodium-free (very 
important!) soda water to the syrup.
If you would like to make soda water yourself as well, here is a recipe 
from a great Web site on beverages (
http://www.upl.cs.wisc.edu/
~craft/bar/section7.html):
Soda: Carbonated Water
5 U.S. gallons of water 
1.5 cups sugar (or sugar syrup) 
1 teaspoon dry bread yeast (rehydrated) 
I fill each bottle 2/3 full, screw on the top, and leave for one or two 
weeks. Each weekend I measure and add the syrup to a few bottles, top 
them off with water and stick them in the fridge.
This is a very quick operation. I had experimented with adding dry sugar, 
but this caused an excessive amount of foaming.
Warnings:
These are all associated with each of their ingredients, but they're 
repeated here just to make sure. We're not making this stuff up. Cola is 
a harsh mistress, and she is quick to anger. Heed the warnings below or 
proceed into certain peril.
Oils: Can cause skin irritation. If oils come in contact with skin, wash 
with soap and water.
Gum Arabic: It is very important that you get only *food-grade* Gum 
Arabic. There is also an *art-grade*, which is readily available at art 
supply stores -- *never use art-grade Gum Arabic!* Art grade Gum Arabic 
is toxic. It will make you ill. You'll be sad. We'll be sad.
75% Phosphoric Acid: Due to its acidity, this product is corrosive to the 
eyes and skin. Handle with gloved hands, and use extreme caution. If 
comes in contact with the eyes or skin, immediately flush with plenty of 
water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention. Rinse any spills on 
clothing or other surfaces thoroughly. Store in a secure area. *do not* 
store more than 50.0 ml.

kill people in relatively small doses. The median lethal dose for an 
adult human is around 10 grams, or approximately one third of an ounce.

in the book that many believe lavender to be part of the 7X formula, so I 
tried it. We liked it in testing.

  Version 2, June 1991 
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this 
license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to 
share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is 
intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to 
make sure the software is free for all its users. This General Public 
License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to 
any other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free 
Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Library General Public 
License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. 
Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the 
freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this 
service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you 
want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free 
programs; and that you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone 
to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These 
restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you 
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis 
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. 
You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. 
And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and 
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, 
distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that 
everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If 
the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its 
recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any 
problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors' 
reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. 
We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will 
individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program 
proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must 
be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and 
modification follow.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a 
notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under 
the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers to 
any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either 
the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a 
work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with 
modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, 
translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) 
Each licensee is addressed as "you".
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not 
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running 
the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered 
only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent 
of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends 
on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source 
code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously 
and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice 
and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to 
this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other 
recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you 
may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of 
it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute 
such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided 
that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating 
that you changed the files and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole 
or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, 
to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the 
terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when 
run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in 
the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an 
appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or 
else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute 
the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a 
copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive 
but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the 
Program is not required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable 
sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be 
reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then 
this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you 
distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same 
sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the 
distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose 
permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to 
each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest 
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to 
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or 
collective works based on the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program 
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a 
storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the 
scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under 
Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 
1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source 
code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above 
on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, 
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to 
give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically 
performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the 
corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, 
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to 
distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only 
for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in 
object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with 
Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for 
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code 
means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any 
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control 
compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special 
exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is 
normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major 
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which 
the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the 
executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access 
to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy 
the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source 
code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source 
along with the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except 
as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, 
modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will 
automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties 
who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not 
have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full 
compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed 
it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute 
the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law 
if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or 
distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate 
your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and 
conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works 
based on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the 
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the 
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to 
these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions 
on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not 
responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent 
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), 
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or 
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not 
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute 
so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and 
any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not 
distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not 
permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who 
receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you 
could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from 
distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any 
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply 
and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any 
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such 
claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of 
the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public 
license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the 
wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on 
consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to 
decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other 
system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be 
a consequence of the rest of this License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain 
countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original 
copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an 
explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, 
so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus 
excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if 
written in the body of this License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions 
of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will 
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to 
address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program 
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any 
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions 
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free 
Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of 
this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free 
Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free 
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author 
to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free 
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes 
make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of 
preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of 
promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY 
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN 
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES 
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER 
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED 
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE 
ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. 
SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY 
SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING 
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR 
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR 
DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL 
DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING 
BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR 
LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO 
OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS 
BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
