My book will be more about technique than recipe, hopefully it will be the sort of book that you can apply to brewing any sour beer you want (whether that is a Lambic or something that no one else has tried before).<br /><br />Glad people enjoyed the article. Good luck on the hoppy French saison, I wanted to include that one, but my dark saison made for a better contrast (even though they added the word “clone” to the recipe name for some reason).<br /><br />A little black book sounds like a good idea for new brewers.The Mad Fermentationist (Mike)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07379932734747507258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066877917844499643.post-13357858698275965962011-06-30T11:27:28.197-04:002011-06-30T11:27:28.197-04:00very nice article Micheal I enjoyed reading itvery nice article Micheal I enjoyed reading itOblivioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04184794716327407609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066877917844499643.post-67620423478270218492011-06-30T09:33:03.874-04:002011-06-30T09:33:03.874-04:00Great article.

Designing Great Beers by Ray Daniels does a great job of looking at winning homebrew recipes and distilling out what they all have in common. However he doesn't include sours or wild beers and that is what I want to read about most.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066877917844499643.post-49924989266034761412011-06-30T09:25:10.252-04:002011-06-30T09:25:10.252-04:00Even though I subscribed to BYO a while back, I st...Even though I subscribed to BYO a while back, I still haven't received my first issue.

I'll pick this one up at my LHBS soon. <br /><br />I (for one) cant wait for your book and hope everything with it goes smoothly. I know you're a busy man. I had an idea for a black book of brewing. All the most pertinant information on styles, BJCP guidelines, grist/mash ratios, yeast temperatures, etc. Everything a new brewer might need for reference. I know having a little black book of brewing would have been supremely useful for me when I started.Eddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11305756886878073074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066877917844499643.post-17370876600201600502011-06-29T18:19:08.844-04:002011-06-29T18:19:08.844-04:00I enjoyed your article a great deal and found it a...I enjoyed your article a great deal and found it an informative read on the style.
