Events / NHC 1st Round cups

« on: May 03, 2012, 12:57:33 PM »

I don't know if AHA provides the cups for all the first round judging sites or if each site buys their own.  I judged in Portland and every beer I judged had poor head retention.  Everyone around seemed to agree it was probably the cups causing the issue.

I received my scoresheets and on almost every one was "poor head retention".  I can't really complain about it since everyone's scores should have reflected this problem.

I didn't note the brand/type of cups other than they were compostable.  Does anyone know the type of cups used so I can avoid them for our future competitions/tastings?

General Homebrew Discussion / Doctoring Beers

« on: April 23, 2011, 10:13:04 PM »

I've seen the recommendations at http://www.bjcp.org/study.php#drbeer for doctoring beers.  Does anyone have any additional suggestions for things that can be done quickly to prep for the BJCP exam?  We have one more study group session before our BJCP exam and I'd like our members to be as prepared as possible.

General Homebrew Discussion / Move general forum to top of list

It might be a good idea to move this forum to the top of the list.  People that are new to forums frequently just post a message in the first forum at the top which in this case is All Grain.

Just a thought.

Cheers!
