Description | Full title: 'Theoretical and practical remarks on G. Blake's system of malting & brewing; confirmed by near 50 years' most sedulous study of its elementary principles, during an extensive practice in different parts of England, Scotland, and Ireland, without the use of any article in the brewery for any species or kind of malt liquors -- but malt and hops. Comprising (with some late interesting discoveries and improvements) the practical system of brewing Burton, Edinburgh, Dorchester, and Ringwood ales; at the latter of the which places, (unrivalled for the excellent quality of its ales) the author was placed under the tuition of one of the most eminent gentlemen in the profession, from whom he derived the first rudiments of a rational system of malting and brewing, which has been considerably improved by his having attended at the above-named breweries. He particularly recommends a trial of his apparatus for procuring gas as a substitute for yeast, for the use of brewers, distillers, &c. &c. To which will be added, a description of his new and improved sacchrometer, which acts without the use of any weight; with its application to the various and important purposes of the brewery.' |
