Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This compelling book details the authors' pioneering work on improving the brewing process and their discovery of Dextrine-Maltose, or malt sugar. Maltose was a critical advance in brewing, as a fermentable sugar that can replace cane or beet sugar when added to wort. Adding sugar in the brewing process offers several benefits: it increases the extract of the beer, corrects specific gravity, helps control fermentation, and can assist in priming. The author provides a detailed examination of the historical context surrounding maltose, its properties, and its applications in brewing. They also explore the broader implications of their discovery, discussing its impact on the brewing industry and the scientific understanding of fermentation. This book offers a wealth of information for brewers, historians, and anyone interested in the science of fermentation. It is a valuable resource that enriches our knowledge of this important process.
