Diversions

Following the suggestion of one of my great helpers, I made up this recipe for a “red rot cocktail”–the kind you would drink that is, and not to be confused with the Klucel/SC6000/ethanol mix for treating powdery leather!

Red Rot Cocktail 2:

3 oz. pomegranate juice or pomegranate-cherry blend

a dash of powdered cayenne pepper

the juice of 1/2 lime

Pour into a cocktail shaker over ice, shake well, and strain into a cocktail glass.

Add a sprig of fresh mint for garnish (optional).

Then I thought I’d better check to make sure there isn’t already something like this out there, and sure enough when you Google “red rot cocktail” this link comes up: Red Rot Cocktail . Their version sounds really good as well! Don’t know how or why they chose to name it as such though.

Let there be multiple variations, since anything goes… But it should have something remotely to do with powder (e.g. cayenne) and be red in color to adhere to the theme.

Sounds light and refreshing with a kick, nice for a festive Sunday afternoon party. If anyone tries this, let me know how you liked it. I haven’t actually had it myself (yet!) so the proportions in my recipe could be slightly off and may need some fine tuning. Or better yet, come up with your own suggestions for red rot cocktail!

Next time, back on track to more serious matters.

Reflections on powdery leather

Developing a treatment plan: The main challenge has been finding the right consolidant, one that will improve the leather’ s strength so subsequent repairs will hold. I have plenty of experience working on leather artifacts, and know what the limited options are when the leather is this degraded. Klucel G works well in the short-term (it has good penetration and effectively consolidates the powdery surface) but is relatively weak, and is known to have a short lifespan of usefulness. What’s more, Klucel is fairly brittle and has shown unsatisfactory long-term ageing characteristics, particularly in an acidic environment such as that encountered with deteriorated leather (e.g. in the presence of sulfuric acid from absorption of sulfur dioxide in the atmosphere).

I recently began using Klucel/SC6000 mixture with good results in terms of improved strength and flexibility; the problem is that it tends to sit on the surface and does not penetrate into the leather structure very well. I’ve also used Pliantex in the past with a very good outcome. Despite the nasty smell of the solvents, it has excellent penetration and imparts sufficient strength and improved flexibility to the leather. Unfortunately, this product has been discontinued and is no longer available! (We happen to have a small supply left over from a similar treatment we did some years back–possibly just enough to last through this project.)

This is a dilemma we all struggle with at some point in our careers as conservators. It is understood that any consolidant introduced into a porous material such as leather, is for all intents and purposes, not reversible. It would be nearly impossible to extract the consolidating agent from the porous material completely. And why would you ever want to, as long the material is stable and is not causing any harm or threatening the future stability of the object in question? There are really only two choices: 1) either to do nothing at all and let the object continue down the path of deterioration and eventually cease to exist, or 2) do something that we’ve been taught to avoid, something that defies our ethical sensibilities—that is, something not readily reversible—and by this intervention, ultimately allow the object to survive for future generations to enjoy.

A description of the actual treatment (so far) is coming soon…

red rot cocktail

Red Rot Cocktail, which Rather Resembles the Noxious Liquid Medicine for Moldy Red Leather-bound Books but Nonetheless Pleases the Palate

• 1/2 oz Cherry Heering

• 1/2 oz Lemon Juice

• 2 dash Peychaud's Bitters

Shake with ice and strain into a coupe glass. I opted for our bottle Ephemeral gin as it is a lighter, less junipery style; the Ephemeral might still appeal to people who claim not to care for gin while being complex enough to keep gin drinkers intrigued. Another fine gin choice would be Plymouth which is rather mildly flavored and is the one that Lauren used in this video on How2Heroes. The red part of the name derives from two components, the Cherry Heering liqueur and the Peychaud's bitters which impart a decently deep hue to the cocktail. The drink starts with cherry and lemon fruit aromas on the nose, and the sip yields a pleasing but not incredibly challenging level of spice. The gin is not as pronounced as it can be in many drinks, but is apparent on the swallow, and the drink falls safely in the middle of the sweetness spectrum. Furthermore, the Red Rot Cocktail's color is rather pretty but not too much so to scare off a guy. Perhaps the drink's name might not appeal to everyone, but the drink's taste sure has a good fighting chance to do so.

Cheers to Kevin for hosting this Mixology Monday and to the rest of the participants for their entries!

My favorite money drink is a toronto! Deep Ellum makes a killer one, as does Kevin at ES.

Independent also has it on their menu now. The problem with the Toronto, which is a tasty Old Fashioned-sort of drink, is that Fernet Branca is not for everyone. Even at a 1/4 oz per Toronto.

Red Rot Cocktail – now on video

I followed up my how2heroes video on Boston’s Ward Eight cocktail with this one on the Red Rot Cocktail. You may recall that Misty Kalkofen and I created this confection for a party at the Boston Athenaeum. It’s inspired by the “red rot cocktail” that book restorers use to bring musty, old, red leather-bound books back to life. Never thought you’d see footage of rotting book covers in a cocktail video, did you?

The great thing about the video is that we actually got to shoot it in the historic, Beacon Street building that houses the Athenaeum. If you’ve never been there, you should pop in someday and check out the first floor and gallery areas. Better yet, become a member and get access to the whole place. You can check out books, attend lectures (I’ve been to some really good ones) and other events, and bring your laptop and work in a spacious, art-and-antique-filled room overlooking the Granary Burying Ground. Contrary to any preconceptions you may have, you don’t have to be a blue-blooded retiree to join. All you need is a credit card and a couple of references.

As for the cocktail (recipe here): it’s pretty, it’s tasty, it’s balanced, and it’s accessible. Serve it to your vodka-swilling friends, and they will be converted to the ways of gin.

This looks tasty, and I love the story behind it. Cheers!

I’m surprised you’re not using a Boston shaker for such a Bostonian cocktail

Sometimes you just gotta shake it up, Nick. Ha.

Shaking not only mixes a drink, it also chills, dilutes and aerates it. Along with stirring shaking is the most common technique employed to mix cocktails.

How to strain a cocktail

When straining a shaken drink, a Hawthorn strainer tends to be used, but when straining a stirred drink it is traditional to use a Julep strainer. Both designs of strainer allow.

How to Keep "Bar Hands" At Bay

Somewhere between lemon-chopping, dish duty, damp towels, and being constantly surrounded by liquids, bartending isn’t easy on your hands. All of that near-constant exposure to water, spirits, acids and cleaning chemicals tends to wreak havoc on the skin, leading many a barkeep to suffer through dryness, cracking, and other unsavory woes. (Add icy winter temps to that mix, and you’re not exactly setting yourself up for a second career in hand-modeling.) “Bar hands” is a very real occupational hazard, so we surveyed a hundred professional bartenders from around the world for their insightful tips on keeping their mitts in good condition. We also asked our panel of experts to share their go-to products for keeping “bar hands” at bay. The results ranged from drugstore products to luxury cosmetics, plus various balms and salves developed for farmers, gardeners, salty sea captains, and the like. See below for our findings.

Red rot

Contributions by: Eva Falls, Lucas Simonds

The term red rot refers to a process of leather deterioration observed commonly in vegetable-tanned leathers from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and infrequently in leathers from earlier periods (Kite and Thomson 2006:253). Although red rot appears most commonly as a red dust on the surface of the leather the associated deterioration processes affect the fibrous structure of the leather, and if left untreated, leather suffering from red rot can disintegrate completely into a red powder (Waterer 1972:126). A powdery red substance forms on the surface of the leather when exposure to acids leads to “polymerization of the tannin to form brick-red phlobaphenes.” Cronyn 1990

While red rot is not completely understood, it is generally considered to be a caused, at least partially, by the action of strong acids, in particular sulfuric acid. Such acids may have been added to the leather intentionally during the tanning process, but could also form as a result of the absorption of sulphur dioxide, a compound often found in pollution (Kite and Thomson 2006:62). The sulfuric acid attacks and breaks down the protein chains that comprise the leather object. Soest et al. 1984 Leather breakdown by acids can also be attributed to past tanning or original assembling exposure. It is often seen in leather bound historic books, because of binding agents or certain paints Soest et al. 1984, and in vegetable tanned leathers Cronyn 1990. Although it has been shown that leathers with a pH below 3.2 are far more likely to develop red rot, in a study from 1975 a sample whose pH was measured as 2.6 in 1931 showed no signs of deterioration whereas a sample whose pH was measured as 6.5 showed significant deterioration (Kite and Thomson 2006:62). Unfortunately, the effects of red rot are irreversible (Kite and Thomson 2006:232); therefore, treatment plans focus on the prevention of further damage rather than repair. The simplest treatments entail improved storage conditions, and an affected piece of leather stored in an archival quality box and wrapped with acid-free paper will show a significantly reduced rate of deterioration (National Archives 2012). Overall, leathers should be exposed to a neutral to only slightly acidic environment. Soest et al. 1984 Red rot is addressed by conservators during the consolidation stage of treatment Morris and Seifert 1978. More advanced treatments involve the use of sealants and consolidants to hold the deteriorated leather together and limit further deterioration. The most common of these treatments is known as the red-rot cocktail,î and is a mixture of S6000 (an acrylic/wax coating) and Klucel G (a consolidant). Although both S6000 and Klucel G produced some adverse effects when applied on their own, the mixture of the two limits those effects while also providing strength to the leather and limiting the absorption of further pollutants (Kite and Thomson 2006:232). A number of other treatments have also been used with some success (Waterer 1972), but the goal remains the same; to consolidate the deteriorated leather and seal it from further deterioration. The leather is structurally breaking down and without attention will eventually become dust Waterer 1972. In addition to concerns over the state of the leather, conservators must also take care around red rot, as the red ìdustî can pose a number of health risks including minor skin irritations and symptoms similar to hay fever (National Archives 2012).

About this Cocktail

Invented by Lauren Clark and Misty Kalkofen for a roaring twenties party at the Boston Athenaeum, one of the oldest libraries in the USA. Named after the mixture of SC6000 and ethanol used by conservators to consolidate old leather, this cocktail is far more pleasant in aroma and, presumably, taste.

Ingredients:

1.5 oz London dry gin
.5 oz St. Germain
.5 oz Cherry Heering
.5 oz lemon juice
2 dashes Peychaud's Bitters

Preparation:

Shake vigorously over ice and strain into a champagne saucer or cocktail glass.
