Why The Beer You Brew Isn’t Consistent - And How to Fix It! | QFPB E020


Listen Later

In this episode of the Quality Focused Pro Brewers podcast, Hendo from Rockstar Brewer Academy discusses how professional brewers can gain control over their brewing process and make consistent, high-quality beer. Hendo emphasizes the importance of setting clear targets and tolerances throughout the brewing process rather than constantly tweaking recipes. He explains the concepts of ‘fit for use’ and ‘true to brand,’ the difference between accuracy and precision, and introduces a tool called ‘The Wall of Wisdom’ for documenting targets and tolerances as well as other beer metrics. Key topics include the necessity of accurate measurements, regular equipment calibration, and having a clear production plan to ensure consistency.
