Contents
Competencies / intended learning achievements
1. lecture
The students are able to
- to describe the food ingredients of fermented beverages and their production
- to show the connections between the different regional beer varieties and their influence on the culture
- to reproduce the microbial and enzymatic reaction paths and the catalysts involved
- explain the basic brewing process operations
- assign analytical methods in brewery technology and evaluate their results
- to assess the negative and positive influences of the cultural drink beer
2. exercise
The students are able to
- to estimate the influence of the ingredients of beer and to plan an own brewing process on this basis
- to work out and calculate the course of sugar and colorant extraction as well as the fermentation process
- prepare a presentation on the calculation, implementation and analysis of the brewing process
- to evaluate their joint group work in a summarizing lecture with discussion.
3. laboratory
The students are able to
- to produce their own beer in group work on the basis of their planning and calculation
- to compare the process engineering basis with the biochemical conversion by practical application of the learned knowledge
- analyze samples from the production process and derive the course of the biochemical reaction
- to understand and explain the underlying theoretical processes on the basis of the practical analysis results.
