This vintage book contains a practical handbook on fermentation and related processes, originally intended for the use of brewers and distillers, analysts, technical and agricultural chemists, pharmacists, and those with an interest in the industries dependent on fermentation. This volume will appeal to those with an interest in the science of brewing, and would make for a worthy addition to allied collections. Contents include: "General Morphology", "Chemical Composition of the Cell Membrane of Eumycetes", "Mineral Nutrient Materials", "Stimulative Influences-General Remarks on h the Enzymes of Eumycetes", "Morphology and Symptomatology of the Mucors", "Fermentation by Mucors", "The Use of Mucors in the Spirit Industry", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on beer brewing.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
