TTie extract soprepared is clear, but somewhat darker than the com-mercial product, because of the elimination of albumin-ous matter at 60°, the presence of which makes the ex-tract lighter in color, but turbid. This lighter extract isprepared by keeping the temperature at 45 to 50° C,but it has not so sweet and agreeable a taste as that pre-pared at 60° C. The addition of hydrochloric acid assiststhe diastatic action considerably. (Siidd. Ap. Ztg.).
