Paddle 2005

[PostModern]

As Goliath indicated in the 2004 results thread, there will probably be debate in forums with more credibility that this one. I'm looking forward to the next few months of the craftbrewers list.

No need to unleash the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch.

A quick clarification please Post Mod!

As I wish NOT to offend anyone, My post on the 2004 results is not about the credibility of this forum! Far from it.

My post relates to the credibility difference between those that bagged the comp and those that identified and understood the comp for what it is.

Regards
Dave

[johnno]

People were bagging the comp????

 

[Batz]

And as far as arguing Jayse , it comes from another Monty Python sketch

"Is this the right room for an argument"

Was a joke mate !




We older people maybe a bit more familiar with the old Pythons

Cheers Batz

Ah OK.
I didn't think you were bagging this forum. We are (outstanding results in the MP 2004 notwithstanding) a more casual group than the highly technical forums like ocb.

Who bagged the comp ?


Make the sit in the " Comfory Chair"

( Form the Pythons Jayse )

I remember some guy - Tom Something ?- having a go at it being AG only and encouraging kit brewers to enter kits

EDIT: there were a few others as well, mostly partmashers who got their noses out of joint at having their (well, mine too) style of brewing derided...

 

[Batz]

mmmmm OK

I must have missed that

Still if someone wants a comp. to those specifications I would say

Don't bag another comp. run one yourself :angry:

And a good idea as well , get it happening

That's pretty much what everyone else on ocb said last year

Hi guys,

Just a quick note -- all the Bruces are back in the office and there is a roaring verbal between all the brewery departments as to who the target beer is aimed at.

Bruce from homebrew sales is still at the pub [he couldn't brew a decent beer so now drinks anything] and still refuses to have anything to do with anything he can't can.

Bruce from accounting has read some of the posts already and is considering ingredient restrictions. Bruce from R&D is furious as he's happy with Australian malts but would like yeast from OS as well as noble hops.

Preliminary survey results are indicating some taste suprises but the full results won't be circulated for about 3 days.

Just a summary report -- more to follow soon.

Steve

Bring on the specs for the 2005 MP Chiller, but dont make it impossible for us remote brewers to obtain specialised ingredients.
I, personally, have never entered a brew comp before so I can't speak from experience but I was of the understanding that the concept of the Mash Paddle was to test the skills of the individual brewer more than the brewers ability to obtain special ingredients and then add them to the brew to produce a winner.
So save the tricky ingredients for other comps and keep the MP skill related.
Just my views!
Cheers

 

[Batz]

I have no idea what the specs will be Dicko

But I am sure that tricky ingredients it will not be
I had all the last ingredients as I am sure you would have when I post the recipe ,


Steve makes the Paddle as you said "test the skills of the brewer"

 

[Gulf Brewery]

Hey Dicko,

If you can't get anything, then I am sure someone on this forum would get it for you and forward in on to you, though I can't think of anything you won't be able to get.

Cheers
Pedro
