For whoever it was who was looking for documentation for making 
vinegar, I just came across this in Liber cure cocorum  [ 
http://staff-www.uni-marburg.de/~gloning/lcc3.htm ].

To make venegur manede;

  Take a gad of stele I wot in dede;
  In strong venegur þou schalt hit seke
  ix sythes in venegur, þerof þou reke,
  A bere with þe hete hit þou may,
  And in goode wyne sleck hit I say;
  Hit shalle be venegur I wot hit wele,
  To serve at a tyme at fest or mele.
  And rosted benes, þat steped han bene,
  Goode wyne schalle turne to venegur be dene.
