DESCRIPTION:
While some elementary knowledge of chemistry and biology is necessary, the book clearly presents the essentials of brewing science and its relationship to brewing technology. Brewing is designed for those involved in the malting, brewing, and allied industries who have little or no formal training in brewing science. Brewing, Second Edition, is both a basic text for traditional college, short, and extension courses in brewing science, and a basic reference for anyone in the brewing industry.. Brewing
an excellent survey of the science and technology of malting and brewing, suitable both for students of biotechnology in general and as a basic reference for anyone in the brewing industry. Praise for the second edition: "Brewing, Second Edition, presents the subject of brewing science and practice in an easy-to-read format with excellent illustrations and gives a good grounding in the subject. Overall, a useful introductory text for anyone interested in the technical aspects of the brewing process." (Food Technology, June 2003)"… these chapters provide a sound basis for the brewing process, with clear expositions of critical steps such as extraction in mashing
Great book for brewers wanting to know more B. Wild This book gets deep into the science of brewing. If you are a brewer that wants to know more "why" than "how", you will get your money's worth. The drawings for illustrations are well placed, but some may be better with pictures. While most of the science goes over your head unless you have a chemistry background, it is written in a way that you can still grasp the concepts presented. I may read this a second time just to reinforce these. The other thing that I like is it not only the chemistry and science part, but brewing equipment (for BREWERI. David B. Hiett said Excellent Introduction To Brewing Science. In the interest of full disclosure, I was a student of Dr. Lewis at UC Davis so I might be partial to his take on brewing. Nonetheless, this is an excellent distillation of the authors decades of research and practical experience in all levels of brewing from craft brewing to regional breweries to large national breweries. The authors effectively screen out much of the minutiae that could clog an introductory text. Likewise, the authors are cognizant that many of the readers of the book will lack extensive science backgrounds and make it very acc. Great Read Scrambler Tired of non technical, outdated, overly simplistic brewing books from homebrew shops? Then this is your book. Great detail (yikes I for got my O-chem from college) for the brewer or homebrewer who wants to know more about brewing.
