KENT.

A work of fome magnitude, ingenious and novel, has lately been completed at the brewery of Mr. Alderman Sankey, in the city of Canterbury. The method for fome time practifed in feveral great brewhoufes in the metropolis, confifts in cooling the wort by running it, by means of an immenfe worm pipe, through a back of cold

liquor, fimilar to the spirit refrigeratory in the distillery; by which improvement the ufe of coolers becomes unneceffary, much room and time are faved, and the lofs by evaporation and waste prevented. In the application of this new mode here, it was conceived by Mr. Sankey that the mot perfect and permanent refrigeratory or cooling back would be his water well, which is fifteen feet diameter, and of a confiderable depth. Accordingly, after much labour and expence, the worm was there fixed, fo as to be con ftantly immerfed by the water of a copious fpring; and now the wort runs from the copper to the bottom of the well, and returns again to the workingtun through a length of revolving pipe the dittance of eight hundred feet.
