FLAVOR is the second book in the Practical Guides to Beer Quality series. FLAVOR offers an easy-to-read yet comprehensive and authoritative description on the science of flavor in brewing. It also addresses how factors such as raw materials and the process impact the flavor and aroma of beer.

FLAVOR: Practical Guides for Beer Quality

Charles W. Bamforth

Reference

American Society of Brewing Chemists

In this accessible yet informative guide, Bamforth explains the processes behind the development of standard methods, how they are evaluated, and why they are important for accuracy and precision. He also discusses the difference between quality control (reactive) and quality assurance (proactive) and introduces Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) and Hazard Analysis and Risk-Based Preventive Controls (HARPC). And woven throughout the narrative are colorful anecdotes and informed insights based on Bamforth s more than 40 years in the brewing industry.

QUALITY SYSTEMS: Practical Guides for Beer Quality

Science & Math

This book provides a solid foundation of scientific information plus the practical knowledge needed to create and operate a successful brewery laboratory. Utilizing an easy-to-understand format and a conversational tone, the authors introduce the fundamentals of chemistry, microbiology, and sensory. This approach is not only ideal for brewing science students and novice brewers, who may not be familiar with these topics, but also for more experienced readers, who will appreciate reviewing the basics.

Scientific Principles of Malting & Brewing, Second Edition

Glen P. Fox

Drawing on more than 30 years of experience, Xiang S. Yin bridges the fundamentals of research on malt through a synthesis of previous and current literature. Readers will learn about the most recent advances in scientific research on malt and malting and the impact on brewing processes and yeast fermentation, as well as beer quality, flavor, and stability. Much of the information is from original research conducted in the author’s own industrial setting.

Malt: Practical Brewing Science

Xiang S. Yin

Readers will emerge from this book with a deeper understanding of the foundations of mashing biochemistry, such as the relationships between starch and starch-hydrolyzing enzymes and between proteins and proteases. Readers will be able to knowledgeably integrate malt quality with brewhouse engineering to develop new beer brands and understand how to modify the mash to produce lite beers and low-alcohol beers. They also will be able to target key malt and mash parameters to troubleshoot quality and efficiency issues that stem from mashing, including fermentability, flavor stability, and filterability.

FOAM guides the reader through the many factors that impact foam, culminating in a step-by-step explanation of how problems with too much or too little foam can be interpreted and rectified. The book takes the reader through the role that foam plays in perceived quality, the factors that impact foam, and the contributions that all stages from barley to dispense make to foam. It also describes how to measure head stability and cling and diagnose problems with over foaming (gushing). The author has conducted detailed research studies on foam for more than 30 years and indeed has been referred to as the Pope of Foam.
