A TEXT-BOOK 



OF THE 



SCIENCE OF BREWING. 



BY 



EDWARD RALPH MORITZ, 



CONSULTING CHEMIST TO THE COUNTRY BREWERS' SOCIETY. 



AND 



GEORGE HARRIS MORRIS, 



PH.D., F.C.S., F.I.C. 



This work is based upon a course of lectures delivered by Dr. Moritz 

 at the Finsbury Technical College ; it contains 520 pages, and is 

 profusely illustrated by plates and woodcuts. The scope and aim 

 of the work are best conveyed in the following quotations from the 

 11 Introduction." The Authors say : 



" The object of this work is to provide in a convenient and 

 accessible form such knowledge of the processes of brewing and of 

 the materials employed in that industry as is at our disposal ; and 

 so far as we are able to connect such knowledge with the practice 

 of brewing. We therefore intend it as a text-book in which may 

 be found the results of scientific research, together with the practical 

 conclusions which we consider justly deducible from them. . . . 

 While carefully differentiating between exact scientific investigations 

 on the one hand, and the conclusions presumably deducible from 

 them on the other, we have thought it only right to take upon 

 ourselves the responsibility of interpreting the experimental evidence 

 rather than place that responsibility upon our practical readers. 



" We do not pretend that a perusal of our work will enable a 

 novice to brew beer ; neither will a study of it convert a purely 

 practical man into a chemist. It is meant, however, to lead the 

 brewer to a better understanding of what we may term the physi- 

 ology and pathology of brewing, and, by so doing, put at his 

 disposal a means for more efficient control over his operations."
