Lesson 7 - Process Control Mechanisms SAQ
This lesson allows you to test yourself on the material covered in the Process Control Mechanisms lesson and determine the level to which you have met the learning outcomes.
Lesson Information
Pre-requisite Knowledge:
-
Process Control Mechanisms (Process Control and Instrumentation/Lesson 6)
Learning Outcomes:
-
Describe the basic components of a control loop and understand how to apply these to real brewing situations.
