Kind of a waste. Get as much info in the instructions with a kit. Better off just getting How to Brew or Complete Joy of Home Brewing. Both of which I've read. This was an idle curiosity as I like to read as many brewing books as I can find. The problem with this book, while being a very general overview, is that anyone getting into extract or all grain brewing will need more info still so might as well just buy a real homebrewing book... Also the recipes are ludicrous! A 5 gallon batch that assumes a 7.93 gallon evaporation rate per hour?! Completely misleading and immensely inaccurate!
