Resumen del Editor

Home Brewing: A DIY Guide to Creating Your Own Craft Beer from Scratch is intended as a starting guide to home brewing beer. Beer has been around for hundreds of years, and its very early history was in the homes of beer lovers as they tried to create their own delicious drinks. As time has gone on, the process for making beer has been refined so that it can now be commercially produced, but that has not stopped hobbyists from continuing to make homemade beer just for the fun of it.

Because brewing beer is such a long and scientific process, each step of the way presents the brewer with new options and techniques that can be tweaked any which way to create new styles and flavors. The beauty of the craft beer industry and home brewing is that it allows for plenty of creativity and innovation, which has produced hundreds of different types of beer that all have their own unique flavor. As you get further into home brewing, you too can emulate these styles and maybe someday create your own.

This book begins with a brief history of the craft brewing industry and its impact on home brewing, then goes into detail about how to get started brewing beer within the comforts of your own home. From equipment to ingredients, we have provided full descriptions of everything you need. It is meant as a guide for absolute beginners, so we have gone into detail about what is known as extract home brewing, but even those who are interested in partial mash brewing and all-grain brewing will find a wealth of useful information. Though our step-by-step brewing process is not specific to any one kind of beer, we have also provided a guide to the different styles so that you can modify the steps, as you need. Whether you want to create your own India pale ale or pilsner, we have the answers.

Guide to Creating Your Own Craft Beer

This is regarded as one of the best books for home brewing. It is a must have on any home brewer's bookshelf. My only complaint is that it's an older book and probably needs an updated version. Also, it lacks information on the Brew in a Bag method. But, the information in this book is invaluable.

GREAT INFO

Lots of helpful information. Good for helping you get started with home brewing and makes it a fun activity to get into..........RECOMMENDED..........

Excellent book

This should be your first purchase if you're looking to get into homebrewing. It covers everything you need to know to start your journey. Richard Altman does a great job explaining the intricacies of the brewing process in easily understandable terms. He also provides a vast amount of information on equipment, ingredients, and a section of recipes in the back to get you started. I always keep this book around on brew day.

the narrarator has no personality!

I could barely get through this book because he just read fast with no passion and didn't know how to say many words correctly. I dont recommend it. sorry Richard Altman. its not your fault

I love this book

EXTREMLY GOOD........... I have always been interested in homebrewing, but have always been daunted by the idea of how big the task is. This book helped not only inform me of all the various parts of hombrewing, IT taught a wealth of information.Highly suggested

good to listen

New to homebrewing in the past year and found this book very informative and helpful in how I will approach this new hobby. What makes this book great, is the flow and readability that the author put into this. I couldn't stop reading and found the section on the history of beer and the process very enjoyable. I was right! Great book and would recommend it to anyone even at retail pricing!

Pretty basic

Pretty basic. My biggest complaint though is they didn't even edit out their mistakes. I noticed three times the narrator messed up and started a line over completely over and they didn't even edit it out. you know the basics you probably won't learn too much.

Needs some basic editing.

Sounds like raw audio from someone determined to ship the first take.
Chapter 3 literally starts with narrator flubbing the first line, a heavy sigh and starting again.
Also it 100% sounds like he is saying crap beer instead of craft.
Otherwise contains a reasonable amount of basic information.
