E. R. Southby wrote this wonderful little book in 1877 in an effort to give practical brewers an easy-to-use guide to brewing chemistry. Southby believed that most of the scientific brewing manuals that had begun to appear around this time were overly complex: "Knowledge is not to be acquired by a study of abstruse chemistry, or by the deepest devotion to atomic weights or novel systems of notation and nomenclature; and, unfortunately, the larger number of modern works upon chemistry appear to have been written chiefly for the purpose of maintaining mystery upon even the simplest points." Thus, for practical brewers who wished to adopt scientific principles in their brewing, Southby hoped to eliminate the "obstacles unnecessarily thrown in their way" by more complex studies.
