The Big Book of Brewing(1974, this edition; 2004)

People wanted to brew beer that matched the quality of shop-bought beer. In his first book "The Big Book of Brewing", Dave Line allowed people to begin to reach the quality they were looking for, by using ingredients and processes that were used in breweries, with simple homebrewing equipment.

At the time people were not getting satisfactory results, due to the fact that they were using substandard ingredients, low quality syrups or beer kits, baker's yeast, and were not technically informed in the processes of brewing. He advocated the use of proper brewer's yeast, whole-grain barley malts, whole hops, and even went into simple analysis and comparison of the chemistry of water used for brewing different beers, and rudimentary water treatment. He also encouraged sterilisation and proper cleaning of equipment.

He was a regular contributor to Amateur Winemaker, and in a decade, probably had more recipes published than anyone else.

At the time of his death he was living in Southampton, 37 and married with a son.
