Syllabus

Week by week.

2 weeks. Two live sessions every weekend and one assignment a week.

Week 01. Making beer without the alcohol

Two routes: stop the alcohol forming, or remove it afterwards
Limited fermentation, high mash temperatures and yeasts that cannot ferment maltose
Vacuum distillation and membranes, and why they suit larger breweries
Body and aroma: speciality malts, oats, late and dry hops, and carbonation
Fixing the worty, sweet taste most first attempts have

Assignment: Design a non-alcoholic recipe for your kit, with a target ABV and a plan for body and aroma.

Week 02. Stability, testing and selling it

With no alcohol to protect it, the beer needs pasteurisation, low oxygen and careful hygiene
Measuring alcohol accurately at these low levels
The ABV limit for calling a beer non-alcoholic is set by regulators and has changed, so check the current FSSAI rules
Where it can be sold, how to price it and who is buying it

Assignment: Write a stability, testing and launch plan for your non-alcoholic beer.
