Anyone else picked this up yet? I got my copy yesterday. The other books in the series have been pretty good. I'll work my way though it over the weekend and report back...

Got mine through the other day. 296 pages all about water! made me sit back and have a little think about how boring a book can be. reading it before bed and it sends me off after about a page and a half. :D

It is definitely the most technical book of the series. I highly recommend it, the section on building brewing water for individual styles is useful.
