POSSCRIPT.

TO shew that Liquors, by being Hermeti∣cally seal'd in Bolt-heads, may be kept from sowering a long time, June 14 we shut up good Ale in one; the 5th of July next Year after, it was not sower: In 13 Months time after it was turn'd a little Sower. This Ale was preserv'd much longer from sowering than otherwise it would.

  • June 14. 70. A Pint of French Claret being shut up, July 5, 71 was clear and high Colour'd, and had deposited a Sediment. When the Glass was broken, white Streams rose plentifully from the Wine, which presently disappear'd again: The Wine was rough, but well Tasted.

  • July 6. It was shut up again. August 5, next Year the Wine Tasted well. June 20, 73, it was still good, and therefore Seal'd up again.
  • Octob. 11. 74. It was open'd again; and appear'd to be well Colour'd, but less Spirituous; yet it was not Sower.
