Hey – I’m Hendo. I help professional brewers that struggle to find reliable technical brewing information to brew consistent, high quality beer that they’re proud of.
You’ve Come To The Right Place Because…
You find that turning to the internet for answers is overwhelming and most often leads you down the “rabbit hole” of misinformation and endless research.
You need fast and reliable technical brewing knowledge to brew beer just like your favourite brewery.
You feel lost in trying to improve your whole brewing process and constantly stress over the quality and consistency of your beer.
Here’s Why You Might Be Stuck
- You’re endlessly undertaking online “research” but are met with mis-information and nothing you can install in your brewery.
- You’re asking a local pro-brewer for advice until your wear out your welcome.
- You’re having trouble scaling recipes and production from pilot-scale to larger batches.
- Ensuring consistency in your beer’s taste and quality is too difficult.
- You struggle to give consumers an amazing experience with regards to flavour outcomes, and your beer is seen as just mediocre.
- You lack sufficient hands-on commercial brewing experience.
- You may be operating your brewery solo and have nobody to bounce ideas off of.
- You’ve become a professional brewer but don’t feel like one because you still approach brewing as a home brewer and you’re not sure what you need to do.
- Your beer just isn’t as good, in your own opinion, as that brewery you love that has the cult following.
Here’s The Truth
To take your beer to the next level, you need reliable technical brewing knowledge but getting access to that knowledge isn’t easy.
There are so many ways to complete all the jobs you need to do in your brewery but leaning on a local industry peer for advice feels like you’re wearing out your welcome and when you go online to ask a question, you get several conflicting answers with each brewer saying their way is the only right way.
