"Beer Brewing in Practice” is a ten-day full-time course that provides up-to-date knowledge of brewing. It covers the fundamentals of brewing in theory and practice. Lectures by experienced brewing experts cover topics such as raw materials (water, malt, hops and yeast), the brewing process, yeast management, fermentation, hygiene, sensory evaluation, the basics of quality control and the economic and legal aspects of setting up a brewery. The course is rounded off with a visit to a microbrewery in Berlin.
The course is taught in English. You can expect an intensive and individual training with maximum benefit. Starting with a practical brewing session on the first day, participants will follow a brew from start to finish with practical quality control.
Due to the high proportion of practical training in our brewery and laboratories, the number of participants is limited.

This basic course is designed for people who want to deepen their knowledge of beer brewing under professional guidance.
