Knowing how brewing equipment is conceived of and constructed, as well as the engineering principles important in successful commercial brewing, enables brewers to evaluate engineering proposals and discuss them with engineers. Learn about the vital engineering models and concepts that are key to operating a working brewery including fluid flow (principally regarding pumps, pipes and valves), steam, energy balances, heat transfer (conduction, convention and radiation) and refrigeration, and gas laws.

INSTRUCTOR:
Cherney, Yuseff A., Head Distiller and Co-Founder of Cutwater Spirits; Taught Brewing through UC San Diego's Craft Center for almost 20 years; Lead Instructor for the Brewing Certificate
Yuseff Cherney is a native Californian, born in San Francisco, and has spent most of his life in San Diego. He graduated from the University of California San Diego with a BA in Philosophy and a minor in Biological Anthropology in 1992. During his college years, he developed a passion for beer and brewing, and after home brewing for several years began teaching brewing through the UC San Diego Crafts Center. Through his brewing class, Yuseff met Chris White who was interested in brewing and worked culturing yeast at the university. Yuseff and Chris became brewing partners and went on to work together developing brewing strains of yeast and co-wrote "The Fungus Among Us," a handbook on yeast culturing. Chris went on to form White Labs, one of the world’s foremo...Read More
