Beer Production & Quality Control picks up from the Raw Materials and Wort Production course to provide training in technologies from the completion of wort cooling & boiling to the evaluation of packaged beer. This course offers in-depth instruction in fermentation and maturation, including all aspects of yeast handling and performance. This course also includes instruction in the process of quality control & assurance, ensuring that students understand the critical role that QA/QC plays in retaining the consistency and longevity of beer and other malt-based fermented products.

This two-week program forms Module 2 of the World Brewing Academy Associate in Brewing Technology and International Diploma in Brewing Technology programs. Students can elect to attend the other courses that form the Associate & Diploma programs at a later date so that they may complete these programs at their own pace.
