En vergeet niet dat u het afkooksel ook van een weinig hop moet voorzien, alsmede gagel en brood, en met deze bestanddelen moet laten koken.Translation into modern English:To make good beer, take equal amounts of barley and oats. For quality, you can add some wheat. Mill the grains together. Put water in a kettle and put it on a fire. Add the milled grains carefully and stir. Boil off one third. Take it off the fire and let it cool to blood temperature. Then put it in a barrel. Take good yeast and bottom-yeast together and mix it well with some wort. Put it in the barrel and let it ferment.
