Course overview
In this course students will learn how process engineering applies to the brewing industry. The concepts of beer quality and flavour, cleaning and sanitation, and the effects that various ingredients including malts, hops, yeasts/bacteria and water have on the brewing process are covered. Process engineering principles are utilised to understand milling, mashing, boiling, fermenting and packaging in a brewery. Using these principles, the full production of a beer in a microbrewery will be undertaken. This course aligns with the program’s intent to demonstrate a body of knowledge and apply this knowledge to industrial and real-life complex problems.
