Originally published in the 1930s, this book contains a great number of simple recipes for making home-brewed wines and beers, including fruit syrups, vinegars and cordials.

Book Excerpt:

A generation or two ago every housewife who prided herself on her catering ability had a choice of home-made wines and cordials in her cellar, and she was always able to offer her friends one or other of her special delicacies.

Of late years, however, the custom of making wine at home has to a large extent died out, and to those living in towns without fruit gardens, and only a limited amount of space for storage purposes, the occupation is hardly a feasible one.

To those with fruit and flower gardens, however, the subject is well worthy of greater attention, and especially when there is a surplus of fruit to be disposed of, or where wild flowers and fruit are within easy reach.

Home-made wines are particularly good and wholesome, and with a reasonable amount of care their manufacture is not difficult. The secret of success lies in using good materials, in measuring accurately, in observing strict cleanliness in every detail, and in not trying to hurry the process.
