Brewing Science The Homebrewing Series provides students starting out their brewing journeys with a balance of the science and art behind the production of beer. This set of two courses will teach the science of brewing while encouraging students to explore their artistic talents through one of the oldest traditions dating back to ancient civilization. The Beyond the Kit: All‐Grain Brewing program serves as our Homebrewing Series of courses to provide participants from beginning to moderate skill levels with the tools they need to perfect their brewing abilities. Students who complete the program will be able to fine‐tune their skills and will have the chance to utilize their at‐home beer production skills in a craft brewery as well. The Beyond the Kit: All‐Grain Brewing program explores several types of brewing methods, recipes, history, and pairing of beers. Students will have hands‐on experience crafting small batch beers and will receive certificates at both the Beginning and Advanced levels. Whether students are interested in brewing for personal or professional growth, this course provides students with the opportunities to hone their skills and build a foundation for further knowledge in the brewing industry.
Courses include both lecture and laboratory components. Laboratories are conducted at Innovation Brew Works, Cal Poly Pomona's popular craft brewery and restaurant, which provides students with an experimental classroom and laboratory space to exercise their brewing skills.
