Joined by Jamie Ramshaw and Dan Cooper of Simpsons Malt, this is part 3 of a 3-part mini-series on understanding one of the most important ingredients in beer, malt. 

In the final episode, we tie up all the information learnt in parts 1 and 2 into how to read your Certificate of Analysis (CoA) for brewing. You will learn what parameters are essential to learn about extract, fermentation and flavour. 

If you already have a good understanding of your CoA I guarantee you will learn a better way of viewing them, also you will learn more about how the analysis is conducted and how that affects the results you're getting.
