Sparkling Beverages
Champagne and sparkling wine tasting is often seen as a pinnacle of glamour and frivolity, but it also offers a fantastic playground for chemists and physicists to explore the subtle science behind these centuries-old drinks. Sparkling Beverages: Champagne and Beyond offers a complete overview of the physicochemical processes at work in a sparkling beverage. In order to achieve effervescence in a glass of champagne, or in any other bubbly drink, precise knowledge fluid dynamics and CO2 solubility are necessary. This fascinating reference covers these concepts, as well as the historical context and modern-day production methods of various sparkling beverages, from simple sparkling waters and ...
Handbook of Molecular Gastronomy
Handbook of Molecular Gastronomy: Scientific Foundations and Culinary Applications presents a unique overview of molecular gastronomy, the scientific discipline dedicated to the study of phenomena that occur during the preparation and consumption of dishes. It deals with the chemistry, biology and physics of food preparation, along with the physiology of food consumption. As such, it represents the first attempt at a comprehensive reference in molecular gastronomy, along with a practical guide, through selected examples, to molecular cuisine and the more recent applications named note by note cuisine. While several books already exist for a general audience, either addressing food science in...

Red, White, and Drunk All Over
Natalie MacLean spent three years sipping her way through sun-drenched vineyards and cobwebbed cellars to bring us this witty, knowledgeable book about the world of wine. In the ancient vineyards of Burgundy she uncovers the secrets of Pinot Noir, then moves on to the labyrinthine cellars of Champagne to examine the mystique of luxury bubbly. She compares notes with novelist Jay McInerney at a bacchanalian dinner, goes undercover as a sommelier in a five-star restaurant, and explores the influence of powerful critics Jancis Robinson and Robert Parker. You may have a head for wine, but Red, White and Drunk All Over will show you its heart.
Trends in Non-alcoholic Beverages
Trends in Nonalcoholic Beverages covers the most recent advances, production issues and nutritional and other effects of different nonalcoholic beverages, such as carbonated beverages, cereal-based beverages, energy drinks, fruit punches, non-dairy milk products, nonalcoholic beer, ready-to-drink products (e.g. tea, coffee), smoothies, sparkling and reduced water beverages. In addition, it covers relevant issues, such as traditional non-alcoholic beverages, labeling and safety issues during production, as well as the intake of functional compounds in particular applications. This is an essential resource for food scientists, technologists, engineers, nutritionists and chemists as well as professionals working in the food/beverage industry. - Provides nutrient profiles and the effects of non-alcoholic beverages - Presents the relevance of the HACCP system for the non-alcoholic beverage industry - Covers a broad range of different non-alcoholic beverages that exist in the market and their characteristics with regard to personalized nutrition
Computational Fluid Dynamics in Food Processing
Since many processes in the food industry involve fluid flow and heat and mass transfer, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) provides a powerful early-stage simulation tool for gaining a qualitative and quantitative assessment of the performance of food processing, allowing engineers to test concepts all the way through the development of a process or system. Published in 2007, the first edition was the first book to address the use of CFD in food processing applications, and its aims were to present a comprehensive review of CFD applications for the food industry and pinpoint the research and development trends in the development of the technology; to provide the engineer and technologist wo...
Champagne
Winner of the André Simon Drinks Book of the Year Award 2017 Winner of the IACP award in Wine, Beer & Spirits 2018 A stunning box set, complete with seven vintage maps in a pull-out drawer. Based on six years of on-the-ground research and unprecedented access to actual Champagne growers, Champagne is the first book to actually describe producers and wines based on their terroir - enlightening readers by showing them exactly where, how, and by whom these great wines are made. Champagne is one of the most iconic, sought-after wines in the world, beloved by serious wine collectors as well as everyday wine drinkers. However, it is also one of the most misunderstood wines out there - obscured by a multimillion-pound marketing industry that makes it difficult for consumers to honestly judge value and understand what they're drinking. Included in the stunning box set are the Louis Larmat vinicultural maps - the only detailed wine maps of the region, which were commissioned by the French government in the mid-1940s and have never appeared in print in English.
Principles of Soil Physics
Principles of Soil Physics examines the impact of the physical, mechanical, and hydrological properties and processes of soil on agricultural production, the environment, and sustainable use of natural resources. The text incorporates valuable assessment methods, graphs, problem sets, and tables from recent studies performed around the globe and offers an abundance of tables, photographs, and easy-to-follow equations in every chapter. The book discusses the consequences of soil degradation, such as erosion, inhibited root development, and poor aeration. It begins by defining soil physics, soil mechanics, textural properties, and packing arrangements . The text continues to discuss the theore...
Carbonated Soft Drinks
The market for carbonated beverages has grown dramatically overrecent years in most countries, and this growth has requiredchanges in the way factories are run. Like other food products,soft drinks are required to be produced under stringent hygieneconditions. Filling technology has progressed rapidly to meet theneeds of manufacturers and consumers alike. Packaging choices havechanged and there have been improvements in closure design. This book provides an overview of carbonated soft drinks productionin the early part of the twenty first century, presenting thelatest information on carbonation and filling methods. There arealso chapters on bottle design, can making, general packagingconsiderations, production and distribution. A final chapter dealswith quality assurance, and environmental and legislative issues.Detailed references provide opportunity for further reading in morespecialised areas. The book is aimed at graduates in food science,chemistry, microbiology and engineering who are considering acareer in the soft drinks industry, as well as technical staffalready employed within the industry and associated suppliers.
