Course Overview

Are you ready to level up your makgeolli brewing skills? Have you tried brewing makgeolli but haven’t had the most amazing results?  Now is your chance to learn how to brew incredibly delicious sool from the experts!

Course taught by Sool Specialist Julia Mellor

We are excited to announce a special edition advanced brewing makgeolli course, taught by Sool Specialist Julia Mellor.  Julia has been teaching Korean alcohol brewing courses for many years and currently lives in the Netherlands to expand The Sool Company internationally.  She will be back in Korea for a limited time, and that means a chance to brew!

So what will we learn?

This special edition course will have 4 classes, each designed to set you up with the tools you need to become a great brewer.  Whether you have brewed before or have no experience, all are welcome in this course.  

Each class will have a theory, practical brewing and tasting session.  You will take home a vessel of your brew to take care of and finish stages at home, and in the last class we will all share some of the results together!

Still hesitating?
