Bran Yeast

Ingredients

• 1 pint of wheat bran
• 1 handful of hops
• 1 quart of water
• 4 table-spoonfuls of brewer's yeast
• 2 table-spoonfuls of brown sugar, or four of molasses

Instructions

Mix wheat bran and hops with the water, and boil them together about twenty minutes. Then strain it through a sieve into a pan; when the liquid becomes only milk-warm, stir into it the brewer's yeast and brown sugar. Put it into a wooden bowl, cover it, and set it near the fire for four or five hours. Then bottle it, and cork it tightly next day.
