‘Technology Brewing & Malting’ – known as ‘the Kunze’ in brewing circles – has been accompanying countless brewers and maltsters while learning and practicing their trade ever since the first edition was published in 1961. Meanwhile, a total of more than 62,000 copies of this unique reference book have been published in seven languages.

The size alone speaks for itself, with around 1,000 pages with some 800 illustrations – many of them in color. ‘Technology Brewing & Malting’ has become a national and international standard work, thanks to its practical and comprehensive representation of all malt and beer production aspects.

The 6th English edition is an entirely new translation based on the revised 11th German edition from 2016. It contains didactically clear, graphic, and current descriptions of all essential malt and beer production aspects, from the raw materials to malt and beer production to filling and packaging.
