I ended up choosing my choice simply based on the types of beers offered that Ive wanted to try because I had confidence in the two brewers I was deciding between.

Tough choices

I’ll pick @wepeeler

I’m here. Internet sucks lemme look who picked who lol

Got my drink poured and ready, precisely 4 minutes early lol.

lol @wepeeler send Twisted Gray your picks NOW before you forget LMAO

There are these types of kits. I believe Yakima valley hops sells one for like $40? It includes like ~12 vials of off flavors. I’ve never done it mysef but I’m sure other manufacturers are also doing this as well

Based on your own question "how can I objectively evaluate my own beer" I like the approach described by @OakIslandBrewery . Download 2021 BJCP beer styles first and then download and print off a scoresheet used at BJCP comps. even if you don't want to put a numerical score to it, this process...

I am fine with the later time start. So 9:15pm EST. Got it.

dude, I am sorry to hear this. Glad she is doing better now though. Brew on!

I stand by my previous post...although we don't have as many participants this time around as normal, Im pretty damn sure I'll be pumped to get any of these offerings.

Honestly, although there are only 8 entries in this time around, Ive always seen solid beers from the group. Don't think we will be able to go wrong with a pick.

@TwistedGray offer in! Edit: just updated it as I forgot to add an entry lol

I will get mine in tonight when I have the chance to sit down and write them out

I will be getting my offer in ON TIME. but just because of @Dgallo nudge, I will take the fully alotted 6 more days lol.

I agree with you with my choice of words of guarantee not being optimal. I do like the fact that WLP has a ax report to show the actual date of manufacture which isn’t on the packaging. That lets us the consumer make choices about how viable the yeast may be by “x” date. I know the “best...

OK I'll chime in on this. FWIW, I completely agree with @IslandLizard here in that WLP does have a solid reputation for packaging their stuff well. WHile I also wish their packaging could just say "100B cells" or whatever amount it is, they do give you the data that you need to determine the...

I think you have created a vacuum-like scenario here where suction from the pump is too much (too high flow rate). I have a 10.5gal foundry. After a coupe of years of using the anvil little pump, I switched to a MARKII amazon knock off. This happened to me when brewing an imperial stout with...

I just now noticed this. gelatin? Ive used whirlfloc in every beer Ive brewed with no bad effects on haze. But I've never used gelatin which is also a clarifier right? Didn't know it had any effect on hop burn. Interesting.

While Ive never used flaked wheat, I've done hazy with only white wheat malt as the adjunct + base malts. It stayed hazy to the bitter end. Not sure if this is the reason for it being clear
