Home-made cider vinegar

"Home-made cider vinegar" by Walter G. (Walter George) Sackett is a comprehensive manual from the early 1900s that reveals the secrets to making quality vinegar at home. It shows folks how to take apples that would otherwise go to waste and turn them into something useful. The book highlights the problems with store-bought vinegar back then, making a case for the better, homemade alternative. Sackett walks readers through picking the right apples, carefully controlling fermentation, and keeping everything clean, providing straightforward instructions and experiments to make sure anyone can successfully make their own vinegar. The guide empowers people to master vinegar production. It covers techniques for changing sugars into alcohol and then into acetic acid, all so readers can make sure they know how to make their own supply of vinegar.
