It was important, Butzke said, to give the contributors that freedom. The questions are listed in the table of contents, and the subjects covered are also included in the index. As might be expected, the questions range from the more general to the quite specific. To give a few samples: "How do I adjust a juice with high pH and high titratable acidity before fermentation?"
