Summary

If you've ever complained about a watery-tasting lager, wondered just what was causing that certain flavor in your favorite porter, or lamented the price of quality craft ale, then it might be time to try perfecting your own brew at home. Whether you're an established beer snob or just want to try your hand at homebrewing, The Illustrated Guide to Brewing Beer will teach you everything you need to know to get started in this increasingly popular hobby.

* An overview of the brewing process
* Detailed procedures for extract, partial-mash,
* and all-grain brewing
* Explanations of the equipment needed for each process and methods for cleaning and sanitizing

* A full glossary
* And much more
