Debbie Cerda talks Zymurgy Live - via AHA

The next installment of the Zymurgy Live webinar series will broadcast on Thursday, July 14 at 9pm ET.

We caught up with our presenter, Debbie Cerda, to talk a little bit more about what we can expect in the presentation:

What will we be learning about in your webinar, “How to Read a Water Quality Report: What it Does (and Doesn’t) Tell You”?

We’re going to learn what information your public water system is required to provide its customers in its Consumer Confidence Report, an annual drinking water quality report. Attendees will find out how to interpret the data provided, including why data may seem “outdated” or not tested , and where you may be able to get the water quality data that’s most important to your brewing process.

Sounds fascinating! But exactly how important is water treatment in home brewing?

The water that comes out of your tap–as well as the water vending machine at the grocery store–has undergone some treatment prior to distribution. In the webinar we’re going to learn how that treatment may impact your water quality, and how to address accordingly in your brewing process.

Where can we find our own Consumer Confidence Report (CCR)?

You can contact your local public water system to obtain this annual report. Many systems post the CCR online, on their own website and possibly the EPA’s website.

Besides your work in water, you’re currently serving as a member of the AHA Governing Committee. Can you tell us a little bit more about your work on the committee?

I am currently serving my second term as an AHA GC member, and serve on the Conference Subcommittee. I am also co-chair of the Research and Education Fund Subcommittee and chair of the Diversity and International Subcommittee. I am dedicated to advancing homebrewing through relevant experiments and innovative technology, and creating a more inclusive homebrewing community.
