Congratulations to the 2023 Iron Brew winners! Each year, the students in the practical malting and brewing course at UC Davis formulate a recipe and compete for the Iron Brew title. The winning team includes Food Science and Technology students Sarah Jane Suriano, Asuka Okamoto, Yoon Jung Choi and Zachary Alan Carling. Their English porter was scaled up with the help of Sudwerk Brewing Company and will be released at the Gunrock Pub on campus June 8, and at Sudwerk on June 9.

The course FST 109 "Principles of Quality Assurance in Food Processing” is offering a series of seminars this Spring 2023. Four industry quality assurance and food safety leaders will share their career path with our students. These seminars are open to everyone in the department.

The seminars will be offered every Friday in May 2023 (May 5, 12, 19, and 26) from 10 AM to 11 AM PDT.

In light of the recent storms we have had, and with more storms on the way, Food Science and Technology Cooperative Extension faculty Erin DiCaprio and Linda J. Harris would like to remind our colleagues, including those in the food industry (as well as the public at large) that we have information resources for food safety during emergencies highlighted on our UC Food Safety webpage.

FST Professor Maria Marco will be featured on Science Café Wednesday, December 14th, in a conversation with Professor Jared Shaw titled "Eat Your Microbes! What are Fermented Foods and Why Do we Eat Them?" The event is at G Street Wunderbar, 228 G Street, downtown Davis at 5:30 pm.
