Produktbeschreibungen
Amazon.com
While authors of entry-level brewing books do well to alleviate the fears of anxious new brewers, advanced writers benefit from a pointedly informative approach. Dave Miller's dry, technically versed style has earned him widespread respect through his own publications as well as his work with Brewing Techniques, the first-rate magazine for small-scale brewers. Really an update to his classic Complete Handbook of Home Brewing, Dave Miller's Homebrewing Guide is clear enough to introduce advanced techniques to the average home-brewer, yet thorough enough to provide a permanent reference for the expert.
Miller manages to improve upon his earlier book--itself one of the finest advanced brewing books available--by updating and better organizing the information. While the Homebrewing Guide does provide a cursory introduction to basic brewing techniques and a sampling of supplementary topics (kegging, filtration), its real value is in the thoroughness and clarity with which all-grain brewing is described. Grain mashing, for instance, is discussed in three different chapters: a summary of various mashing techniques, a description of the underlying biochemistry, and a step-by-step description of the mashing process. By compartmentalizing the information into short chapters and carefully organizing their sequence, Miller creates a guide that can be read straight through as an initiation to advanced brewing or easily referenced for specific information on brew day. --Todd Gehman
Synopsis
This guide gives a simple yet complete overview for anyone who wants to try brewing beer and combines easy-to-follow instructions with illustrations. The author offers advice on various techniques, with details of modern equipment and procedures. He looks at the specifics of brewing beer, including fermentation, lagering, and mash methods. He also examines sanitation and maturation issues and suggests the safest, most hygienic procedures.

Format:Taschenbuch
Miller offers a comprehensive account on the art of brewing. His language is indeed somewhat dry, but information is always ready at hand. For beginners with a daring and careless attitude towards brewing, Miller definently manages to get across the message of all the things that can go wrong. Whereas Papazian offers a soothing remark, Millers warns of imminent disaster.
The book is well organised, and it is no problem using the book while brewing.
The main problem with the book is its unappealing design. The paper quality is not reference grade and the illustrations are not good.
But these remain minor things. Miller is in my opinion the best start for a homebrewer.

Very informative, but not always easy to read.
14. Dezember 2000
Format:Taschenbuch
I liked this book very much and learned a lot from it, but I think it could use some editing and revision. The book seems to hop from one thing to the next with no clear structure and even repeats itself a few times. It also lacks all of the great illustrations that good brew books are usually filled with. Granted, this is not really a beginners brew book, but nonetheless, I wish it had been edited more clearly. However, I will not criticize the information that dave offers the homebrewer. He is certainly an expert and gives the reader much detail in each aspect of brewing. This is a great book for the partial mash or extract brewer out there who wants to move into all grain brewing... or if you're the kind of guy that needs to add another brew book to your shelves, go ahead and get this one. You'll learn a thing or two no matter how long you've been brewing.

Detailed, but repetitive
20. Juli 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
This book contains a lot of good info, which I've found to be both interesting and useful as I get back into brewing after a break of a few years. I have Papazian also, and of the two books, I pick this one up more often, and find what I'm looking for more easily.
Despite the comments of some other reviewers, one doesn't need to be an all-grain brewer to find this book useful. I'm creating my own recipes using extracts and specialty grains, and find this book to be very helpful.
However, Miller is pretty repetitive. It is only a slight exaggeration that there are 3 chapters on each topic: on each on theory, equipment and method. I find that there is a moderate degree of repetition of material across these chapters. A consolidation of each topic into 1 chapter could well result in a 1/3 reduction in pages for the book.
I'll echo another reviewer, who commented negatively on the recipes towards the back. They are really just lists of ingredients, without discussion on method (eg. mash temperatures) or variables.
Having made these mild complaints, I'll go on picking this book up every day or so as I think about what to do for my next brew.

Very heavy book.
1. April 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
This book is for the homebrewer that doesn't just accept that brewing works because it does. David Miller gets into some pretty heavy theory in this book and if you can keep up him you'll learn a hell of a lot.
There are many pages dedicated to the organic chemistry surrounding the brewing process. There are plenty of other pages that explain things a bit simpler.
Good book overall.
