by Joe Fisher and Dennis Fisher

The Homebrewer's Garden: How to Easily Grow, Prepare, and Use Your Own Hops, Brewing Herbs, Malts Cover

 

Staff Pick

A marriage of two of my all-time favorite things (beer and gardening), Joe and Dennis Fisher's The Homebrewer's Garden is an essential reference for any homebrewer looking to adopt a more holistic approach. With information on growing, preparing, and using your own hops, malts, grains, and brewing herbs, and an emphasis on organic methods, The Homebrewer's Garden isn't just the best book of its kind... it's also the only one.

Grow Your Own...Brew Your Own!

If you have a backyard, or even a sun-facing porch, you can greatly enhance the flavor, aroma, and uniqueness of your homebrew by growing your own hops, brewing herbs, and malt grains.

Easy instructions will help you put the "home" into your homebrew from setting up your first hop trellis, to malting grain at home, to brewing recipes specially formulated for homegrown ingredients. When you grow your own organic ingredients, you can be sure they are the freshest and purest available.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 183-184) and index.
