Books
How to Brew by Jon Palmer:
The modern textbook on brewing, written both as a guide for beginners and a reference for experts. Palmer is an engineer so he doesn?t scrimp on the details, which is good for some but may be overwhelming for others. If you think you?re in the latter group, start with The Complete Joy of Homebrewing. The book is structured to walk you through all the major topics of homebrewing from basic to advanced, and includes numerous appendices covering recipes, beer styles, troubleshooting, and more. I reference this book at least once every time I brew.
The Complete Joy of Homebrewing by Charlie Papazian:
The original textbook written by the godfather of modern homebrewing. The prose is more approachable than How to Brew but softer on the details. The book is an ambling blend of instruction, warm encouragement, drawings, recipes, and step-by-step pictures ? all featuring a spirited couple with frothy steins in hand.

From the Author: I?ve been brewing beer for about 4 years. I took to it quickly once I got started and now it?s a regular part of my life. I have greatly enjoyed the experience and am glad I have put in the time and effort to learn the craft, so I hope my writings will inspire you to try brewing for yourself.
