Author of Brewing Classic Styles: 80 Winning Recipes Anyone Can Brew
“Jorge write with a passion that is evident and only surpassed by his passion for brewing. If you are interested in taking your use of complex flavors in brewing to the next level, The Shape of Brewing is a great first step on that journey”
The main objective is to teach how beer flavor can be shaped. By providing means for the brewer to be able to elaborate unique recipes. Removing fears and concerns about using unique ingredients, techniques and products. It is assumed the reader is familiar with the whole brewing process, and that good quality and stable brews are achieved consistently. This book is aimed at widening the brewer’s horizons, offering a pole for that first vault jumping.
Therefore, throughout this book we’ll be reviewing where inspiration can come from, how to apply it to the beers to be, discussing techniques and processes where flavor can be impacted, shaping it to reflect our own intentions. Training the thinking process is crucial to come up with unique concepts and creations.
Exploring and presenting theoretical brewing ideas and trials that the brewer is encouraged to conduct on their own. It can be seen as the school’s exercise book, but one where you cannot look for the solution in the back. You will need to find it for yourself.
