FOREWORD This is the final book in the "Simple Home Brewing" Series.

There is so much you can do with home brewing, with so many different recipes to inspire your imagination. This book is by far my most favourite recipes. I love spices, especially chilli, lemon and lime in beer. I hope that these recipes can become some of your favourite as well. Just like all of my other books, I have made it a big point to be as simple as possible. No complications or excessive time frames. Just having fun and making beer. Like my other books I have added some normally very complicated recipes and simplified the process. You can tell the ones that are normally complicated as they have a lot of ingredients but just like my other books made simple. I hope you enjoy this book just as much as I enjoyed making it.

Glossary There are a lot of terms used in Home Brewing that can confuse people. In every book that I publish, I add a glossary for the reader to completely understand the terms that are written in the book. Although in my other books you will find most of the same words in the glossary, it is important that you learn these terms and understand what they mean. Additives: Extra substances can be added to your brew to make it last longer or change the taste. These can consist of preservatives, enzymes, and antioxidants. Alcohol volume: A measurement of the amount of alcohol. This is presented as a percentage. Ale: Earlier English style beer. A type of drink before the 1500's before beer as we know it. Made from water, barley, yeast and hops. Barley: A grain used for making beer. Generally used in stouts but can be used in other types of beers. Beer: The beverage we know and love made from fermenting of grains and hops to give a wonderful alcoholic flavour. Bitter: Originally an English term to describe a well hopped draught. It is bitter in taste. Most bitters are considered as heavy in alcohol content. Black Malt: Barley roasted at a very high temperature. This is used with many stouts Body: A term used to describe the weight and texture of the beer in your mouth. Bottle capper: A device used to put the crown caps on glass bottles. It can be used for bottling beer or soda. Carbonation: The process of putting bubbles in beer caused by carbon dioxide(CO2). Carbon Dioxide (CO2): A gas used to put the bubbles in beer. Mainly used in kegging. Draught Beer: This is a term used for serving beer. Originally beer was drawn by gravity through taps. Draught beers did not use any extra CO2, just whatever the beer produced. Dry Enzyme: Helps the yeast consume more of the sugars available in the brew. Helps with a drier taste. Dry hopping: This is when more hops are added to the fermenting process. It will add to the already existing flavour or the beer. Finish: Beer tasting term used to describe the length of taste that lingers in your mouth after tasting beer. Glucose: A simple sugar used to feed the yeast and add to flavour.

Grain bag: A grain bag is made of a stocking type of material to hold the loose grains when soaking in hot water. This allows you to get the flavour of the grain without putting the grain straight in the fermenter. Head: This is the foam on top of the beer. If the beer is lacking head, you can use dextrose to increase it. Hops: Hops are the female flowers of vines that are used to flavour beer. Hydrometer: Is used to measure the weight of the liquid. You can buy different hydrometers to measure different kinds of alcohol or liquid. Keg: A stainless steel cylinder that holds beer. CO2 gas is used to push the beer out. Lager: The word originally comes from German to describe a high quality beer. Light Ale: A lighter in color form of bitter. Malt: A type of grain, mostly barley, that has been moistened, then germinated, and then dried. Mead: Traditionally ale made with honey and fruit. Herbs and spices can also be added. Pale Ale: First brewed in London in the 18th century, it is a name given to bottled draught beer. It is said that gypsum is makes the most ultra fine quality Pale Ale. Pilsner: The term has originally come from the Czech village of Pilsen. It is to describe the quality of the brew from the Pilsner Malt. Sanitizer: This is one of the most important parts of home brewing. The sanitizer will help you keep your gear clean and free from harmful bacteria. Siphon hose: Used to transfer beer from the fermenter to a keg or bottles. Stout: Originally brewed by the English, it was discarded and the adopted by the Irish. They have made the best stouts in the world today. Water: One of the four major ingredients used to make beer. The others are grain, hops and yeast. Wheat beer: Is a mixture of wheat malt and barley malt. This produces a pale murky beer that has a high alcohol level. Wort: A tar like extract that is made from the mashing of grain and water. Used to ferment the other ingredients into beer. Yeast: A single celled organism that converts sugars into alcohol and CO2. Many people try to use baker's yeast. The results are not as good as the brewer's yeast is specially designed to get the most out of your brew. Zymurgy: A term used to describe the science of brewing.
