I picked a copy of this up and would recommend it to the group. My
background is electronics with an emphasis on intrumentation and
control so am comfortable with hardware but get a little (read a lot)
out of my depth when it comes to chemistry. He is very good at
explaining chemistry in laymans terms.

For Europeans this is a great book since it covers a lot of the newer
EU rules and regs. I'm in the US but consider it to be one of the two
reference books I will start with when I need to do some research. The
other one (which I have worn out) is Margalits Winery Technology and
Operations.

It's a great book.
