Malt Wine

Ingredients

2 lb. malt extract
1 lb. white sugar
Brewer's yeast
1 gallon water
1 lb. honey

Method

Warm the water until it is just too hot to hold the hand in comfortably. Add the malt extract (which should, of course, not contain cod liver oil) and stir until dissolved. The colour may be improved by boiling the mixture for thirty to sixty minutes; there will be no haze problems since malt extract does not contain any pectin. Dissolve the honey and then the sugar in the hot liquid and when cool add the yeast and pour into a jar. Ferment, store and bottle as given for Barley Wine.
