Riassunto

Brewing Materials and Processes: A Practical Approach to Beer Excellence's novel methodology begins and ends with what goes into the beer, and the result. From adjuncts to yeast, from foam to chemometrics, this unique approach takes quality to its foundation and reveals how the right combination builds to a great beer. Based on years of both academic and industrial research and application, the book includes contributions from around the world with a shared focus on quality assurance and control. Each chapter will address in detail the measurement tools and approaches that are available, the nature and significance of the specifications that are applied. In its entirety the book will represent a comprehensive description of how to address quality performance in brewing operations.

Overall quality starts with the quality of the ingredient and beer is certainly no exception. Understanding how the grain, hops, water, gases, worts, and other contributing elements establish the framework for quality is the core of ultimate quality achievement. For those in corporate R&D, researchers and students and for highly-skilled small-scale brewers, this book is an ideal companion to Beer: A Quality Perspective, as well as those seeking to understand how the parts impact the whole in beer production.

• Focuses on the practical approach to delivering beer quality, starting with the raw ingredients
• Presents an analytical perspective for each element giving the reader insight into its role and impact on overall quality
• It will be as much a hands-on reference work for daily use as it is an essential volume in the brewing education literature that addresses area lightly covered elsewhere.

Informazioni sull?autore

Charles W. Bamfforth, PhD, DSc, FIBD,FIBiol, FIAFoST is the Anheuser-Busch Endowed Professor of Malting and Brewing Sciences at the University of California, Davis. He has held positions as director of research for Brewing Research International and as research and quality assurance manager for Bass Breweries in the UK. He is the author of numerous books and papers as well as being the editor-in-chief of the Journal of the American Society of Brewing Chemists.
Dr. Bamforth specializes in the science of malting and brewing. His current research program focuses primarily on the wholesomeness of beer, including studies on the psychophysics of beer perception, on polyphenols and on the residues from non-starchy polysaccharide digestion that constitute soluble fiber and potential prebiotics in beer. Research in the laboratory also embraces the enzymology of the brewing process, foam stability, preventing oxidation in wort and beer and alternative paradigms for beer production.
He has received the Award of Distinction, American Society of Brewing Chemists, 2011, and the Cambridge Prize, Institute of Brewing, 1984
