Publisher's Synopsis
This vintage book contains a systematic course of practical work in the scientific principles underlying the processes of malting and brewing. "Laboratory Studies for Brewing Students" is highly recommended for those with an interest in the science and development of brewing processes, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "A Study of the Barley Corn", "The General Characteristics of a Grain of Barley", "Ear of Ripe Barley and Spike of Barley when in Flower Compared", "The Flower of Barley", "Ovary", "Anthers", "Lodicules", "The Flower after Fertilisation", "Barley and Wheat Compared", "Ears of Two-rowed and Six-rower Barley Compared", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on beer brewing.
