- Literature Searching: Given a specific component of a beer sample, search the scientific literature for a published method compatible with the instrumentation and supplies available.
- Method Selection: Evaluate the pros and cons of different methods and choose the best one.
- Budgeting and Ordering: Create a list of supplies, identify amount required and manufacturer, and determine overall cost.
- Sample Preparation: Develop a procedure for sample preparation by following and/or adapting literature protocol.
- Accurate Preparation of Standards: Design a procedure to prepare standards by following and/or adapting literature protocol.
- Troubleshooting: Adapt the procedure to solve experimental problems as they arise. Identify and solve errors with instrumentation such as a clogged column, low lamp intensity, misaligned burner, etc.
- Ethics: Employ ethical practices in the utilization and interpretation of data. This is especially important because the brewery will make decisions about production based upon the data reported.
- Interpretation of Data: Draw conclusions about the accuracy, precision, and reliability of the results.
- Future Work: Recommend future directions for the project.
