For 1 minute, you can use:

var date = new Date();
date.setTime(date.getTime() + (60 * 1000));
$.cookie('username', username, { expires: date });  // expires after 1 minute

For 30 seconds, you can use:

var date = new Date();
date.setTime(date.getTime() + (30 * 1000));
$.cookie('username', username, { expires: date });  // expires after 30 second
