USI Intro to Homebrewing Class Instructor Needed

Post by Chris Norrick » Thu Oct 17, 2013 1:51 pm

I'm retiring from teaching this class next year. If you would like to take over, send me a PM and I'll pass your name along.

Class material costs and a stipend are provided. I ran it four Saturdays in the spring the first year and three Saturdays the second time but you would be open to develop your own curriculum and schedule. For a spring class, all the details need to be worked out by October 30.

Are they students or a labor pool, can this line be fuzzy at all?
Who keeps the beer of said "lab work"? :)

I set the class limit to 12 and they all had a "take home exam" to learn bottle conditioning of the finished beer. We did two batches; an extract the first class, BIAB all-grain the second, and then bottled the third, skipping a week in between for fermentation time. Arrangements were made to allow tasting of homebrew on campus in class.
