+> **Troubleshooting "Permission denied for schema public" (PostgreSQL 15+):**
+> If you already created the database without setting `brew_user` as the owner and encounter this error, log in as the superuser (`postgres`), connect to the `brew` database, and explicitly grant the schema privileges:
+> ```sql
+> \c brew
+> GRANT ALL ON SCHEMA public TO brew_user;

 > [!NOTE]
 > Database tables (such as `users`) are initialized automatically when you start the backend server, as defined in [server/db.js](file:///home/sortedcord/Projects/brew/server/db.js).
