What people say about Tom’s courses
The chemistry of brewing is very important for people to understand for home brewing and in the industry, so we need more of this to help build the industry as a whole.
This course was excellent.
Loved the information on the water composition.The instructor seems genuinely passionate about the science of brewing and that came through.
The course was very well run and the content certainly met the course description. The presenter’s extensive experience in the brewing industry, their academic pedigree and relaxed but professional nature made them an excellent instructor. They delivered the material in an easy to understand manner.
Love the course and would highly recommend for anyone starting to get serious about brewing.
After this course I immediately started finding some faults in my ales and I’m looking forward to fixing them.
