First Edition. 12m0; modern red cloth, renewed endpapers gilt-lettered spine, all edges gilt;1266pp.; illus., charts and graphs throughout. Inscribed onhalf title from E.J. Vilsack to a Wm. J. Staff. A few minor smudges and spots to boards. Binding sound and pages unmarked; a Very Good copy. Scarce first edition of this impressive "ready reference" from the founders of the American Brewing Academy, later known as the Wahl-Henius Institute of Fermentology. Both trailblazers in their own right, Wahl and Henius trained a generation of American brewers and brought international prominence to both state-side beer and barley, with Wahl himself provoking violent opposition with his claim of American barley superiority. His claims were vindicated by German scientists and his and the Academy's stature continued their pre-Prohibition rise. This volume, scarcely found in retail, is impressive in scope and detail, with chapters on brewer's arithmetic, physics and machinery, micro-organisms, bottling, etc. Includes a meticulously researched dictionary and index, which were priorities of the authors.

Flexibound. Zustand: Good. Second Edition. Aims to be "a pocket encyclopedia, by reference to which the brewer, maltster, refrigerating machine engineer, bottler, etc., as well as a person engaged in the commercial activities of a brewery, may find an immediate answer to questions that may come up in connection with the exercise of his calling, without requiring him to wade through bulky volumes and peruse quantities of information in search of a single item of knowledge." - Preface. Authors were Directors of the Scientific Brewing Station of Chicago and of the American Brewing Academy, as well as editors of the "American Brewers' Review," etc. "The plan of the present work was wholly novel - thus the editors had no precedents to guide them, but were obliged to seek altogether new paths. It contains much original work elaborated in the course of time by the Scientific Station for Brewing of Chicago. Special pains were given to the elaboration of an exhaustive and complete index, whereby, it is hoped, everything of importance contained in this book can be readily found." - Preface. "Substantially a reprint of the 1901 first edition, as only typographical errors have been corrected." - pg ix. "Max Henius (1859-1935) was probably America's greatest brewing scientist, in any era. Originally from Denmark, he studied under Professor Emil Hansen, a legend in world brewing science for his work on pure yeast cultures. Henius extended the work of Hansen in America." - Gary Gillman. "Robert Wahl (1858-1937) was a former classmate of Henius." - Wikipedia. [iv]-xvi, 1266 p. Index. Black and white illustrations. Bound in original limp black leather. All edges gilt. Floral endpapers. Bright gilt lettering upon backstrip and flap. 6.5" x 4.5" x 1.6" Clean, tight and unmarked with moderate external wear. An attractive and well-preserved example of this extraordinary pre-Prohibition reference. ; 16mo.…
