2009 BJCP Class - Class 2

Post by donniestyle »

We'll be having the second BJCP class this Sunday at the home of Chuck Homola. Chuck's address is 905 Glen Rose Dr, Allen, TX 75013. Chuck, I looked this up, please contact me ASAP if it is incorrect.

This class will be on Troubleshooting. I will be using Ken Woodson's Trouleshooting 1 presentation for this class. It is available in the NTHBA library page. I recommend the following reading (links) before the class.

BJCP Study Guide Troubleshooting section, http://www.bjcp.org/study.php#trouble
BJCP Study Guide Guidelines for Doctoring Beer section, http://www.bjcp.org/study.php#drbeer
BJCP Flash Cards Off-Flavor Flash Cards, http://www.bjcp.org/docs/OffFlavorFlash.pdf

The two beer styles for the class are Category 2 Pilsner, and Category 8 English Pale Ale. Please review these styles in the 2008 BJCP Style Guidelines (links below).
Category 2 presentation Jimmy Orkin, beers provided by Jason Carr, http://www.bjcp.org/2008styles/style02.php
Category 8 presentation David Ireland, beers provided by Scott Townson, http://www.bjcp.org/2008styles/style08.php

In addition, I found the link I was looking for. It is the Judge Procedures Manual, http://www.bjcp.org/judgeprocman.php. I think the true/false questions for BJCP exam question 1 are answered there.

You should get familiar with and answer question 1, http://www.bjcp.org/study.php#exam. Give it a try, and let me know if you have any questions on it. The fill in parts to question 1 are answered in the beginning of the BJCP Study Guide http://www.bjcp.org/study.php#sectionii, and in the BJCP Member Guide, http://www.bjcp.org/membergd.php.

Lastly, I'm really sorry for not getting this email out last week. I've been very busy, and this week is no exception. I had to force myself to do this tonight.

See you Sunday,
Don
Is your beer intimate, hand crafted, and artisanally made?
