Signed up (username Arrheinous). We should organize some kind of class discussion thread around here.
The problem with online classes is that signing up for them is easy. Sticking with them gets difficult especially if you don't have to do it and you're doing it alone.
The course does have a Organic Chemistry prerequisite. A fundamental understanding a chemistry and organic structure and reactivity will be very helpful. The course will be very focused on a few specific topics related to brewing. We will be including content on the basic Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry concept.
See you in class!
Thank you very much for posting - I am really looking forward to this course! Since it seems like many of us do not have the chemistry background suggested (or have taken the classes long ago), are there any specific topics, journal papers, or articles we could read to garner some relevant knowledge beforehand?
Thanks again!
Saw the thread and thought I would join in.
I am teaching "Chemistry of Beer" at OU on Janux. I am glad there is some much interest in the course. Thank you.

One of the major contributor to success in a course is a student motivation and interest level. I am sure that most of you have spent hours learning the brewing craft and may know a great deal about the chemistry than you realize. The course will be expanding and deepening this knowledge.
The course has been fun to create. It will be fun to take.
See you in class!
I signed up ... been a long while since I took chemistry in college, so I'll probably try the Organic Chemistry classes at Khan Academy as a refresher.

This is going to be really fun.
