The section on water is a little overwhelming to say the least!
Overwhelming, more like total cr4p
That's a little harsh Aleman
As I don't have a the book in my possession at the mo I can't agree or disagree. Could you elaborate?
Best wishes

Ha ha ha! Not just me then!
it confuses the hell out of me when I started.

Not quite the same but related. I found my Dad's first edition of 'Brewing Beers Like Those You Buy'. Never tried any of the recipes but his descriptions and attention to detail made my mouth water. Found Wheeler soon after but I still like to go through it now and then to see how it was 'back in the day'.
