Capitol Food Company 120 Grain Vinegar is an aqueous solution of acetic acid and trace chemicals that may include flavorings. In much of the vinegar industry, the term "grain" is used to measure the strength of vinegar. In this terminology, 120 grain refers to 12% acidity. The term "grain" comes from an alternate measure of weight, the grain. By dissolving a base like sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydroxide in water, you could measure how many grains it took to neutralize vinegar of a specific strength and volume. In the most common formulation, it took 10 grains (presumably of sodium hydroxide) to neutralize 1% acetic acid, so the usage of grains for vinegar strength became interchangeable.

Capitol Food Company 300 Grain Vinegar is an aqueous solution of acetic acid and trace chemicals that may include flavorings. In much of the vinegar industry, the term "grain" is used to measure the strength of vinegar. In this terminology, 300 grain refers to 30% acidity.

Capitol Food Company Baking Powder is a dry chemical leavening agent which is a mixture of a carbonate or bicarbonate and a weak acid. The base and acid are prevented from reacting prematurely by the inclusion of a buffer such as cornstarch. This product is used to increase the volume and lighten the texture of baked goods. It works by releasing carbon dioxide gas into the batter or dough through an acid-base reaction, causing bubbles in the wet mixture to expand and thus leavening the mixture.
