I found this book first before realizing Dave "Homebrew" has other books on brewing beer, so I'll have to grab those soon too. As a total beer brewing newbie I found this particular book incredibly helpful, with many descriptions of things that can go wrong and in most cases their simple solutions.I had no idea there were so many different things that can go wrong brewing beer, especially with taste and smell. Fortunately Dave spells out the solutions in easy to understand language. Particularly scary are beer bottle bombs; when the home made brew that is bottled can actually explode. Scary, but easily avoidable if you follow his simple instructions.Overall this book was very nicely laid out. Dave's easy to read style makes it all the more enjoyable. This is one book I'll keep on hand when I go to do my next batch of home brew.
