Appendix to the Journals of the Senate and Assembly of the ..session of the Legislature of the State of California . s being emptied and refilled. Inthis manner the pomace is thoroughly worked and the hottest steamthrown into pomace already partially exhausted of its alcohol. Itusually takes from three quarters to one and one half hours todepriveeach cask of all its alcohol after the steam is turned directly in. Of course, a large pomace still like this is feasible only where large([uantities of pomace are obtainable. Whenever only a small quantity of pomace is to be distilled, the stillshown in Fig. 4 will be found sufficient for all purposes. This can alsobe worked by steam, has a wooden boiler, and is very much like theone described before. A is the wooden boiler; B is the cooler; C is theopening for charging the still; the steam is admitted at D; E is themanhole for discharging; i^is a reservoir for water with which to cool a there is an arrangement for catching the ananthic ether. Theboiler can be made any desirable size. In this apparatus it holds 560 THE UTILIZATION OF WINE RESIDUES. 151. litres of pomace. The time required for running a charge of this sizeis from two to two and one half hours. Portable apparatus will be found very convenient, if the laws of thecountry will permit. Such portable stills are greatly in favor in Italv. Fig. 5 shows such a still. For this one a gold medal was atthe International Exposition at Conegliano, in 1881. The still rests ona two-wheeled carriage. ^ is a steam boiler; F the firing; D the chim-ney passing through the boiler; 5 is a cylindrical boiler, which containsfour perforated false bottoms, on which the pomace to be distilled isplaced; ^ is a crane for handling the pomace; C is the doubler, cooledby the outer air; E is the cooler with a worm; ^ is a small doubler witha low-wine pipe into C. The last portion of the distillate is condensedin the worm Z. g is the pump for supplying cold water to E. Thewater,
