Good Info for Commercial Brewers
The presentation was better suited for commercial brewers who want Hoppy Beers. For the homebrewer many of the suggestions and techniques would not be applicable.
Great course with plenty of detail
Lots of good tips and detailed numbers
I think a bit more visuals about dry hopping would have helped
