This book is an excellent reference item for anyone engaged in home brewing or looking to get started. technique and tips are all backed up with the science behind brewing. As such it helps to further the reader’s understanding of what is a very large and complex subject.
For non-American home brewers: Do not be put off by the references to American beers and brewing. Whilst alot of the book is targeted to the American style of brewing and Malt Extract brewing, there is a vast amount of useful information here that is applicable to all styles of brewing.
A must have for the home brewer’s library.

After having previously purchased Brew Your Own British Real Ale (Camra) which was a great book for novice to intermediate brewers I wanted to know more about the actual brewing process and the chemistry involved in each of the ingredients. This book is the only reference guide you will ever need as it goes into great depth to cover all aspects of brewing. The book is written by a US author and as such in places it can be slightly slanted to US style beers but on the whole the techniques are fairly generic and very easy to understand. The chapters start off with the basics and end with more information that you’ll ever need to complete your brews, including a handy troubleshooting guide to assess why your beer didn’t quite turn out as you expected!

After a few failed attempts at making a decent homebrew I purchased this book. It was very easy to read and understand, and quite amusing in places. So, I read most of it, sheduled my brew day, ordered my ingredients, and made a homebrew which surpassed my expectations! Now it’s all gone and I have to start again!

In depth view of brewing, if you are interested in the nitty gritty. Written by an American so slightly different brewing style than in the UK.

If you read this and listen to the Brewing Network podcasts the only way you can make anything other than excellent beer is to not do as they tell you! Yes it’s American but metric units are included and I’ve had no trouble brewing to that. Also contrary to popular belief, perpetuated by the awful American beer sold in this country, the US is now home to the best beers in the world, so trust an American author on this subject. If you weren’t aware of this you’ll find plenty of British and European styles to brew in this book. Also it’ll open your eyes to fermentation temperatures, proper liquid yeast and yeast pitching rates which really go together to make a beer better than you can buy. Go into most “old-boy” home brew shops here and ask for liquid yeast or a yeast starter flask and you’ll get a blank look; this is why homebrew has such a poor reputation here. Luckily some of the better shops and internet suppliers are getting with it so everything in this book is available to the UK homebrewer. Buy it!
