Time 



It is apparent from the curves that tannin exerts a retardative action on 

 the rate of effervescence, but no definite conclusions can be drawn from the 

 data obtained as to the effect of varying amounts. Bottles 3 and 5 were not 

 prepared at the same time nor under the same conditions as the others and 

 this renders it impossible to deduce anything of real value. It must be 

 noted however, that bottles 1, 3 and 5 are very much lower in sugar than 

 2 and 4 and in all three bottles the rate of effervescence was much faster. 



Series V. The Effect of Glycerine. 



Owing to the fact that the law prohibits the addition of glycerine these 

 results are of no practical value and were conducted merely to note its effect 

 for the sake of possible interest.
