CHAP. IIII.
Of the particular passages obseruable about the Infusion of the Fund or Bag.
I Haue now enlarged and pro∣portioned the Bag of Ingre∣dients to Panala for two Gallons (or twelue wine quarts) of Ale, that it may furnish man and wife for one weeke, or one patient for two. This is a bottle more than former vse, and I hold it the meane and best proportion for most part to be obserued, both for extracting, preseruing and participating the Qualities of the Ingredience. But this quan∣tity of the Liquor may be somewhat augmen∣ted or diminished, & the potion made strōger or weaker of Medicinable Qualities, to fit the affections of seuerall Stomackes, the Custome of little or larger drinking, or other intendments.
An ordinary Stand, Steine or Ale Can with a Tap-hole, will be an apt vessell to serue well for the Infusion, prouided there bee alwayes care to keepe it close couered: but a small Rundlet, fitly bungd for Receipt of the Bagge, will best of all retaine and conserue the Life and quicke Relish of the Liquor.
