The duss alt got silver in its category last night. The kolsch scored a 39.5 and didn't appear to get pushed according to reggie, LOL.
Both beers were really good, but had very minor flaws, IMO. The kolsch needs to be a little lighter and dryer and the alt needs a little less dehusked carafa and it would be perfect.
Now that I have the mill working I ought to be able to get my crush under control and have more predictable outcomes with efficiency. Also, I know how to adjust my water properly now too and that should make a difference. I overdid the acid additions on the kolsch and made the water too malt forward according to bru'n water.
Anyway, CHEERS! Another wall hanger and I'll take it.
