Review:This book is a constant burn relaxing you, then exciting you with the desire to create a new anything. Sam Calagione pours his passion into each and every page. I couldn't put it down as I felt like I was sharing each success and failure along the way. Read more
Review:Best paleo cookbook (apart from Well Fed 1), and really great cookbook all around. My nonpaleo people enjoy the recipes as well. Great, robust flavors and wonderful use of easy to find spices and ingredients. Flexibility of recipes makes the book at least 3x more valuable. This and the original are my two favorite cookbooks to date. Well done!! Read more
Review:Imagine Sid Stone (street pitchman from the Milton Berle's Texaco Star Theater) hawking this book:
You got your cashew parrot zygodactyl toes.
You got your Day of the Dead mini candy skull decorations.
You got your red-sugar-covered ice cream cone Gnome hats.
You say you're not satisfied? You say you want more for your money. Tell ya what I'm gonna do.....
I'm gonna throw in your fork pop mini treats (page 143).

Review:I have a few cocktail books and am very selective about the ones I buy and this is the best cocktail book I've ever read. It's everything I've ever looked for and this along with Dale Degroff Craft of the cocktail are probably the only two you will ever need. I can't recommend highly enough. Read more
Review:Great cookbook, nice quality & always like a cookbook with photos. The recipes are perfect for anyone wanting healthy recipes, Megan's are excellent, easy and by far the best.

If there is a recipe that I can't consume I can usually tweak it to fit my food preferences but that is mostly flours and certain grains so I just pass over those...there are so many ex... Read more
Review:This book is life changing. Harley breaks everything down, he makes it easy. I am on day 9 of the cleanse and I have seen results. I do not feel hungry or deprived of food, the smoothies are super easy to make. I am a fan for life. Read more
Review:This is a must read for any aspiring bartender or mixologist... It is a good grasp on "where things came from", why they are called what they are called, and the love for BITTERS! it aint classic if it aint gotta bitters! haha no but this is a great read if you can't get your hands on the Savoy Cocktail book and there's a ton of information including Procedures for each drink and WHERE to purchase every product he talks about.

Review:John Palmer's book is a quintessential addition to any brewer's library. It can guide a new brewer through the steps while giving a lot of useful information to more advances brewers.
My only criticism is that some times Palmer can go a little deep into the technical details (formulas, chemistry, etc) earlier in the book than I would have liked when I was just getting started. I feel like a higher level over view up front with more of the details to follow could have helped me when i was ... Read more
