April 2019 - 5 THE ANGEL’S SHARE by Paul Senft Havana Club Añejo 3 Años Curiosity, it can get you in trouble, or it can lead to fun discoveries. When exploring rums, curiosity is a driving force behind every product I choose to review. Cuban produced Havana Club rums, often seen as “Forbidden Fruit” in the United States of course would make me curious since so many times I have found that “Forbidden Fruit” is rarely worth the trouble. In our recent travels I was gifted this particular bottle of rum. The rum is created by distilling fermented molasses using a copper lined My name is Paul Senft - Rum Reviewer, column still.

Palate The first sip delivers a rush of sweet fruit, toasted coconut and minerals. Additional sips slow things down and it is easier to define the fruit notes as cooked pineapple, sweet grapes, honey, fresh cut oranges and a zing of lime. There are light undertones of ginger that is highlighted by a hint of black pepper, tobacco leaf, charred oak and minerals that mingle with the fruit flavors in a long pleasant finish. Review This time curiosity paid off in a good way. I enjoyed the complexity of the rum and was quite comfortable sipping it neat. However, it really does shine in traditional classic cocktails as well as other drinks that call for an immature rum. When I think about Donn Beach or Victor Bergeron and their bar teams developing Tiki cocktails back in the 40’s and 50’s; it is easy for me to imagine this being the kind of Cuban rum they were using in their recipes. This is a fun one to experiment with and I will make sure to try and keep a bottle in stock for the bar. I am well aware for the readers outside the U.S. this is probably old news, but for those of us dealing with the ongoing embargo and restricted distribution of Cuban products in America, it is good to know if a product is worth the luggage space. In this case I definitely recommend picking a bottle up on your travels. www.havana-club.com Got Rum?

    Reprinted from New Beer in an Old Bottle: Eduard Buchner and the Growth of Biochemical Knowledge, pp. 25–31, ed. A. Cornish-Bowden, Universitat de València, Spain, 1997 ALCOHOLIC FERMENTATION WITHOUT YEAST CELLS* Eduard Buchner Until now it has not been possible to separate fermenting activity from living yeast cells; the following describes a procedure that solves this problem. One thousand grams of brewer’s yeast1 that had been cleaned as a prerequisite for the preparation of compressed yeast, but to which no potato starch had been added, is carefully mixed with the same weight of quartz sand2 and 250 g Kieselguhr. It is then triturated until the mass has become moist and pliable. Now 100 g of water are added to the paste, it is wrapped in filter cloth and gradually subjected to a pressure of 400–500 atmospheres: 350 cc press juice are obtained. The residual cake is again triturated, sieved, and 100 g water are added. A further 150 cc of press juice result when the cake is again subjected to the same pressure in the hydraulic press. One kg of yeast hence yields 500 cc press juice, containing about 300 cc cell substances. Traces of turbidity are now removed by shaking the press juice with 4 g of Kieselguhr and filtering through paper with repeated refiltration of the first portions. The resulting press juice is a clear, slightly opalescent yellow liquid with a pleasant yeast odour. A single determination of the spe- cific gravity gave a value of 1.0416 (17°C). A large amount of coagu- lum separates upon boiling, so that the liquid almost completely *Preliminary Note, received 11 January.

Charles (Bacillariophyceae): based on scanning electron microscopy of type material.- Nova Hedwigia 81: 257-265. Abstract: Aulacoseira nygaardii was originally described by Camburn (as Melosira nygaardii in Camburn & Kingston 1986) based on light microscopy. Because the fine structure of this taxon can be difficult to resolve with light microscopy, positive identifications can also be difficult. We present an emended description of this taxon based on an evaluation of type material with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Although SEM micrographs reported as A. nygaardii were presented by Scherer (1988), our observations indicate that the specimens examined by him possess several characters that differ from those in the type material and may represent a different organism. Key words: Aulacoseira, Aulacoseira nygaardii, diatom morphology, Melosira nygaardii, Melosira fennoscandica, scanning electron microscopy, type material. Introduction Aulacoseira nygaardii (Camburn) Camburn & D.E Charles 2000 was originally described by Camburn as Melosira nygaardii in surface sediments from Sand Lake, Alger County, Michigan, U.S.A.

    RESEARCH REPORt 2010—2012 MAX-PLANCK-INSTITUT FÜR WISSENSCHAFTSGESCHICHTE Max Planck Institute for the History of Science Cover: Aurora borealis paintings by William Crowder, National Geographic (1947). The International Geophysical Year (1957–8) transformed research on the aurora, one of nature’s most elusive and intensely beautiful phenomena. Aurorae became the center of interest for the big science of powerful rockets, complex satellites and large group efforts to understand the magnetic and charged particle environment of the earth. The auroral visoplot displayed here provided guidance for recording observations in a standardized form, translating the sublime aesthetics of pictorial depictions of aurorae into the mechanical aesthetics of numbers and symbols. Most of the portait photographs were taken by Skúli Sigurdsson RESEARCH REPORT 2010—2012 MAX-PLANCK-INSTITUT FÜR WISSENSCHAFTSGESCHICHTE Max Planck Institute for the History of Science Introduction The Max Planck Institute for the History of Science (MPIWG) is made up of three Departments, each administered by a Director, and several Independent Research Groups, each led for five years by an outstanding junior scholar. Since its foundation in 1994 the MPIWG has investigated fundamental questions of the history of knowl- edge from the Neolithic to the present. The focus has been on the history of the natu- ral sciences, but recent projects have also integrated the history of technology and the history of the human sciences into a more panoramic view of the history of knowl- edge. Of central interest is the emergence of basic categories of scientific thinking and practice as well as their transformation over time: examples include experiment, ob- servation, normalcy, space, evidence, biodiversity or force.

    Chemistry Project on Study of Rate of Fermentation of Juices INDEX 1. Objective 2. Introduction 3. Theory 4. Experiment 1 5. Experiment 2 6. Observation 7. Result 8. Bibliography OBJECTIVE The Objective of this project is to study the rates of fermentation of the following fruit or vegetable juices. 1. Apple juice 2. Carrot juice INTRODUCTION Fermentation is the slow decomposition of complex organic compound into simpler compounds by the action of enzymes. Enzymes are complex organic compounds, generally proteins. Examples of fermentation are: souring of milk or curd, bread making, wine making and brewing. The word Fermentation has been derived from Latin (Ferver which means to ‘boil’).As during fermentation there is lot of frothing of the liquid due to the evolution of carbon dioxide, it gives the appearance as if it is boiling. Sugars like glucose and sucrose when fermented in the presence of yeast cells are converted to ethyl alcohol. During fermentation of starch, starch is first hydrolysed to maltose by the action of enzyme diastase. The enzyme diastase is obtained from germinated barley seeds. Fermentation is carried out at a temperature of 4–16 °C (40–60 °F). This is low for most kinds of fermentation, but is beneficial for cider as it leads to slower fermentation with less loss of delicate aromas. Apple based juices with cranberry also make fine ciders; and many other fruit purées or flavorings can be used, such as grape, cherry, and raspberry. The cider is ready to drink after a three month fermentation period, though more often it is matured in the vats for up to two or three years.
