flavors. A high-proof adventure, Bourbon & Bacon includes 140

smoky ingredients. Morgan's collections of cocktails, new

barbecue, or elegant dinner. For bourbon enthusiasts, Morgan rates
more than 75 of his favorite whiskeys and takes readers on a
cheerful tour of many of the South's top distilleries. Bacon lover?
Well, of course you are. Bourbon & Bacon is full of bacon
secrets, farm tours, bacon ratings, and tips and tricks to make the
best of everyone's favorite meat. This authentic handbook to the
South's most flavorful products has a forward by the two most
famous voices in the food industry, Julian Van Winkle III of Old
Rip Van Winkle Distillery and Allan Benton, of Benton's Smoky
Mountain Country Hams. Together, with Morgan's hilarious Southern
tales and irresistible recipes, Bourbon & Bacon is an essential
guide for anyone who loves either bourbon or bacon.
Originally published in 1922 this book has been revised since its
first publication-which placed emphasis on fractional
distillation-to include distillation on a large scale as carried
out in the manufacture of important products. Distillation
Principles and Processes covers the research of scientists in
fields including: Acetone and n-Butyl Alcohol, Alcohol, Petroleum,
Coal Tar, Glycerine and Essential Oils.
The story of Cain's, like the story of Liverpool, is one of
passion, ambition, and graft. It takes in immigration, global
trade, terrible poverty, and vast wealth. In just two generations,
the Cain family went from the slums of Irish Liverpool to a seat in
the House of Lords. As the city grew, so did the brewery, and as
the city struggled, so Cain's fought for survival. At the height of
Liverpool's fortunes, Robert Cain owned 200 public houses across
Merseyside, including the world famous Philharmonic Dining Rooms
-'The Phil' - which he built. City and brewery have shared the
highs and lows of recent Liverpool history and the remarkable
revival of Cain's by another immigrant family, the Dusanjs, in the
twenty-first century is matched by the city's own recovery and
reinvention. Here, then, is the story of Liverpool in a pint.
In Dave Arnold s world, the shape of an ice cube, the sugars and
acids in an apple, and the bubbles in a bottle of champagne are all
ingredients to be measured, tested, and tweaked.
With Liquid Intelligence, the creative force at work in Booker
& Dax, New York City s high-tech bar, brings readers behind the
counter and into the lab. There, Arnold and his collaborators
investigate temperature, carbonation, sugar concentration, and
acidity in search of ways to enhance classic cocktails and invent
new ones that revolutionize your expectations about what a drink
can look and taste like.
Years of rigorous experimentation and study botched attempts and
inspired solutions have yielded the recipes and techniques found in
these pages. Featuring more than 120 recipes and nearly 450 color
photographs, Liquid Intelligence begins with the simple how ice
forms and how to make crystal-clear cubes in your own freezer and
then progresses into advanced techniques like clarifying cloudy
lime juice with enzymes, nitro-muddling fresh basil to prevent
browning, and infusing vodka with coffee, orange, or
peppercorns.
Practical tips for preparing drinks by the pitcher, making
homemade sodas, and building a specialized bar in your own home are
exactly what drink enthusiasts need to know. For devotees seeking
the cutting edge, chapters on liquid nitrogen, chitosan/gellan
washing, and the applications of a centrifuge expand the boundaries
of traditional cocktail craft.
Arnold s book is the beginning of a new method of making drinks,
a problem-solving approach grounded in attentive observation and
creative techniques. Readers will learn how to extract the sweet
flavor of peppers without the spice, why bottling certain drinks
beforehand beats shaking them at the bar, and why quinine powder
and succinic acid lead to the perfect gin and tonic.
Liquid Intelligence is about satisfying your curiosity and
refining your technique, from red-hot pokers to the elegance of an
old-fashioned. Whether you re in search of astounding drinks or a
one-of-a-kind journey into the next generation of cocktail making,
Liquid Intelligence is the ultimate standard one that no bartender
or drink enthusiast should be without."
