I just got scores from one of my beers . Still waiting on the other two

Anyone get anything from Tampa?

Anyone receive score sheets yet? Emailed I assume?

Yes it did help the retention to clean it. I took it apart and soaked/scrubbed in pbw .

Anyone have any info on Tampa? Judging was this weekend .Wonder if they got it all done?

Is that for all sites or just the ones listed to start today?

Porter, munich dunkel, Berliner weisse . Shipped during the latest polar vortex ..hoping the berliner didn't freeze .

This will be my second year entering . I shipped 3 entries to Tampa. Hoping the results will come quicker from Tampa then when I did it in nashville...

That was the number I got when I checked my pre boil gravity (1.033) things got weird after I soured . after souring and boiling it was 1.026 checked with hydrometer (trusted)

I soured a berliner in the boil kettle. I pitched a lacto starter culture of wlp677 and 2 cup whole grain (strained) .The post mash pre boil/pitch gravity was 1.033 ..18hrs later the ph had dropped to 3.3 with a gravity reading of 1.030 (refractometer only) Post boil the gravity reading was...

I'd say if you brewed for it now it would be prime by the time it was judged for nationals. I sampled along the way for the 7 months I lagered .Id say around 5 months it peaked and held its quality from then on

I brewed this in March of this year for a party we had 2 weeks ago. We brewed 10 gallons . kegs were gone within a couple of hours ..mega hit! Diehard bmc drinkers loved it. Next March were doing 20 gallons .This is an excellent recipe and ages extremely well. I've entered many beers into...

I cleaned it best I could, But I don't think I got everything. I too thought this was a possibility. Any ideas on the best way to clean it? Anything I can submerge it in? Thank you

Purchased an inertap flow control faucet. Everything works fine except now I have no head retention and the co2 bubbles are big and disappear quickly instead of the tiny ones that I used to have. The old faucet would produce a head that would lace all the way down the glass. I have changed...

Resurection Couldn't find any info on my issue so I thought I'd try to piggy back on a thread where people seem to know what's going on with the faucets. Issue: I have recently bought a flow control intertap. Everything works ok except for the beer dosent have hardly any head retention and the...

We brewed the original recipe in march. We made 10 gallons. I have it keged in the fridge waiting for our octoberfest party. Doing out first whole smoked pig. I've kept it under co2 and tried samples along the way. It really turned out great. It has a beautiful malt profile. Its the first time...

Just made a new post on this but I figure I'd try here too. We are now using the wlp677. I've read it can be a bit tricky to get to sour. What are thoughts with doing a grain/677 starter? Hand full of grain with enough lactic acid added to drop ph so the nasties stay out then the 677 on top of...

Looking to do a starter for a berliner. This is my first sour. We are using wlp 677. I've read that this can be tricky to get to sour out. I was thinking if I could add some grain to the starter along with the 677 and bring the ph down around 4.5ph to ward off the bad bacteria this might give...
