Pre-ordered this on Amazon (Camra won't ship here) and then got a notification that it's delayed shipping until possibly March 2025. Hopefully in the next few weeks it arrives in some online shops here.

Hmm. I wonder how much of it is just a reworking of Graham Wheeler's method with a few American recipes thrown in. I wasn't impressed by Parker's earlier book "CAMRA's Essential Home Brewing" or the two recipes from Elusive, which were included. Don't know squat about Zainasheff, though. I'll probably wait for a second-hand one in a few months time, out of curiosity. In the meantime, I'll be very interested to read your reviews.

I am up to page 107 of 302. I'm enjoying reading it. Firstly, I wouldn't recommend it for a beginner and to be fair, the introduction begins by saying It assumes you already have a basic understanding of brewing beer.
I have made a number of notes so far, for example about different mash pHs for different styles. As I remember most books just say your mash pH should be within a range, but don't specify specific ranges for specific styles.
There is some good stuff on pellet v leaf hops and on the different types of pellet hops. It also talks about Incognito etc.

This is the contents page

And these are the books I already had

I got that too. Figured there had been a delay in its release and Amazon were just guessing.

My copy arrived yesterday as well and had a quick flick through it.. Looks like a decent book. The recipes look really good to me. A nice selection of styles and difficulty as well with some good notes on how to brew them.
