Salads or Brewing Yeast Fermentation Performance

Salads: The Best of Favorite Recipes from Quilters

Author: Louise Stoltzfus

One in a six-volume set of little cookbooks--each one a treasured collection of recipes from the best-selling cookbook, Favorite Recipes from Quilters.

Each book in the series presents a particular category of food. The six books are: Breads, Soups, Salads, Main Dishes (Pasta, Vegetables, and Meats), Pies, and Desserts. Each book offers 24-36 recipes--all proven favorites from the original collection. Each volume also includes several stories from the lives and experiences of quilters. The charming design of these books makes them an irresistible impulse item. Their colorful dustjackets and readable spines make them equally eye-catching on a bookshelf or beside a cash register.

Each volume contains warm and strikingly rich watercolors throughout its pages. Each painting was created exclusively for this series.

These books have about them the special vibrancy that comes from cooking and quilting. All who own them will share in that!

Brewing Yeast Fermentation Performance

Author: Katherine Smart

Building on the success of the first edition, Brewing Yeast Fermentation Performance, Second edition considers the importance of yeast quality on fermentation performance and the means by which process control may therefore be achieved.

Contributions from leading international brewing technologists from industry, research institutes and academia ensure that the coverage is practically oriented, commercially relevant and academically rigorous. Contents include up-to-date coverage of key aspects of the subject, including molecular innovations, yeast stress responses, wort composition, yeast quality, beer flavour development and yeast handling.

Brewing Yeast Fermentation Performance is an essential purchase for commercial brewers at all levels, technical personnel and allied traders associated with the brewing industry. It is an excellent companion reference source to the first edition, covering complimentary topics that no one connected to the brewing industry can afford to be without. Libraries in universities and research establishments where food and beverage science and technology and microbiology are studied and taught should have multiple copies on their shelves.
