Sorry, we can't share the individual scores. We try to keep them private between the judges and the brewer, and the steward who turns in the top three entries for their category.

Just got the scores posted yesterday, thanks for checking Korvitz. Everyone's should be available now. PM me if your scores aren't showing for whatever reason. We hope to make the online system even better next year and have the scores available within a day or two. Thanks again to everyone...

We are working to get individual scores posted to the registration pages sometime this week, so you should be able to see the scores before the scorecards arrive in the mail. We will update when that is available. Thanks!

I use the Bayou Classic Banjo in the garage and out in the driveway and love it. The thing is a beast.

I'll be in Haverhill right off 495 that morning/early afternoon, I'll send you a PM and see if we can work something out.

I definitely can't make Sunday May 19th, it's my daughter's birthday. I couldn't make it down there anytime before the evening. I either need help from anyone north of the city that can handle my 3 bags or I need to figure something else out, sorry guys.

Cutoff is Saturday, May 18th, sorry for the confusion.

LHBS have to be crazy if they think people will buy the same amount of grain at a greatly increased price from them. I don't have the money to spend $50 a batch. I buy my hops in bulk it's the only way to afford brewing a dry hopped iPa, I'm not buying $14 of hops for one batch.

Homebrew group buys are an atypical commercial situation, it's not the same as an average purchase at your local retail store. It involves organizing online, volunteer work and coordinating a delivery/pickup location. It's far beyond what your average consumer would do to get a better price on...

Any word on a new group buy? I'm on my last batch of grain.

I'm in as well, looks like I'll have to be quick on the spreadsheet with all the interest that's been building. The last group buy was the first one I've participated in and it went really well, thanks so much to everyone that organized it.

I don't drink while I brew, a six hour brewday that starts in the AM leaves me wiped out by the time I am cleaning the last pot or bucket. Then I'm usually obligated to put in some family time in the evening since I can't deal with distractions when I brew. If I was single, had all day and...

My technique may be due to not having my setup dialed in perfectly, but I always add water to grain so I can monitor the temperature constantly. I've had wildly different temp swings in summer vs winter, so I use the amount of strike water I add to stabilize my mash temps.

Wild Turkey, doesn't have to be the 101. Hell I'd use Old Crow if I had it on hand. I don't find cheaper bourbons disagreeable compared to other spirits.

I'm very happy with better bottles. I'm a fermentation voyeur and must always see what's going on in there.

I don't get all the bottle hate. It's about an hour or so extra work per batch. The beer keeps for a long time so it's easy to stack and store cases in the basement. I do a lot of Belgians and they improve with 6+ months conditioning in the bottle. In my beer fridge I have 8 different types...

No reason not to brew in garage if you can, might not keep the cold out with the door open but at least you'll avoid the wind issues.

I bought a second tank for that exact same reason. Now I always brew with two tanks and switch out when one freezes up. First time I froze it up I thought it was empty and brought it for a refill. The propane guy laughed and told me it was still half full. I also find tipping/rocking it helps...

All grain, I've saved a ton of money going all grain and buying malt in bulk. All grain upgrades the way you make beer kegging only upgrades the way you serve it.
