I have a larger amount of winemaking books too.
The series "Malt", "Hops", "Water", "Yeast" is worth reading.
I read that on holiday. Good read. For some reason I'd always thought "Alt" was "alternative" as opposed to "old"
I picked up a free trial of kindle unlimited so have been getting through quite a few decent reads:
Vienna lager
Historic German and Austrian beers for the home brewer
Now reading Balmy Nectar which made me look this up http://frothblowers.co.uk/aofbhist.htm
Will be 100 year Anniversary in November.

This has just arrived
I always believed it was top fermenting !I read that on holiday. Good read. For some reason I'd always thought "Alt" was "alternative" as opposed to "old"
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.
Already available from The Malt Miller, along with the recipes kits

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.

Cheers, had only ordered one from there this very morning as I had a few other things sitting in the basket.
Have also ordered this new book, on paper that’s exactly what I would like.
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.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a brewing book that includes lots of useful info on kegging?
