Product Description The Beer Renaissance is in full swing, and home brewing has never been more popular. According to the American Homebrewers Association, there are currently 1.2 million home brewers in the country, and their numbers keep rising. Tired of the stale ale, bland beer and lackadaisical lagers mass-produced by the commercial labels, Americans are discovering the many advantages of brewing their own batch of that beloved beverage: superior aroma, color, body and flavor. For both amateur alchemists eager to tap into this burgeoning field and seasoned zymurgists looking to improve their brews, The Brewmaster's Bible is the ultimate resource. Its features include: Updated data on liquid yeasts, which have become a hot topic for brewers; 30 recipes in each of the classic beer styles of Germany, Belgium, Britain and the U.S.; extensive profiles of grains, malts, adjuncts, additives and sanitizers; recipe formulation charts in an easy-to-read spreadsheet format; detailed water analyses for more than 25 cities and 6 bottled waters; directories to hundreds of shops; and much more.

Not A Bad Recipe Reference 13 November, 2007 If you're looking to get your feet wet in homebrewing, this book is most likely NOT for you; it's little more than a collection of recipes, basic charts, and really, really basic information that you can get from your local homebrewing club, and trust me -- you have a local homebrewing club.
If you're looking for a compilation of various recipes, some atrocious, some gems, this'll hit the spot. Not recommended.

Highly Recommended 09 January, 2007
Excellent; I refer to it more often than any other brewing book. There are perhaps three hundred partial extract recipes; a good detailed collection from around the world. The book starts with a history, then a description of ingredients and types of beers. The yeast and hop profile section is real good. There is a convenient brewing record evaluation form. There are Tips on all grain and decoction mashing. Yield probabilities are also very helpful. The back contains weights, measures and formulas. Highly recommended.
Wish you well

At Least It Didn't Cost Much 23 August, 2007 Don't buy this book for its introduction to the brewing process or its description of the world of beer ingredients. However it is a nice collection of recipes... but you could get those for free in lots of other places.

A Good Product 17 February, 2008 a very good source for a graet selection of beers.However some of the recipies have some odd ingredients, such as gelatin for clarity, otherwise, very good.
