| Undervisningsform | |||||||||||||||||
| Lectures, where a general theoretical overview of the subject is presented. Theoretical exercises that elaborate and illustrate the theoretical knowledge by using e. g. specific real world examples. Practical pilot brewing and limited laboratory experience with chemical and physical analytical methods that are used for wort - and beer production. | |||||||||||||||||
| Målbeskrivelse | |||||||||||||||||
| Students will acquire a general and basic theoretical understanding of the different steps of beer production. The course will specifically prepare students who have not yet completed practice in a brewery for the Courses Brewing 1 and Brewing 2. Knowledge Identify and describe the processes in a standard brewery with respect to physical and chemical changes of raw materials, beer processing and the normal analytical work related to carry out process control. Skills Apply concepts from chemistry, microbiology and food technology to describe the beer manufacturing process. Reading and using original scientific literature related to brewing science. Present orally and in writing phenomena and basic principles that are associated with modern brewing practice. Competences Evaluate the physical and chemical changes happening in barley, malt and hops during beer production based on mostly literature, but partly also based on own experimental data and scientific literature. | |||||||||||||||||
