Better Beer Brewing! Martha I love this book! I used it as a companion to thekitchn.com's Beer School (also by Emma Christensen). Very complete and detailed, plus beautiful pictures. The thing that most distinguishes this book from other very good brewing books is that Emma gives recipes for (and excellent reasons for) brewing 1 gallon batches. I would never have gotten into brewin. Not what I expected, but pleasantly surprised. It was not at all what I expected. I was looking for a somewhat technical homebrewing book; this book is mostly recipes and elementary concepts -- but it made me really excited to brew a wider variety of styles. The four beers I've brewed based off these principles have turned out wonderfully.. basic and somewhat helpful Nice intro and terminology. The steps mentioned lack detail and visuals. This is helpful to the very beginner but shortly into the reading it becomes too basic even for those who have never brewed before .
