AHA recipe Wiki needs a boost!

Yes indeed… she’s still pretty skeet in some key areas (only one recipe for Am. Stout???)

I’ve seen a LOT of recipes posted on forum topics… lets get 'em logged into the wiki!!!

I’ll start it off by submitting a 2nd place Trad. Bock.

I agree.

I need to enter my 2010 NHC Silver Medal ESB.  I’ll have it done by the weekend.

Yes, please do!  Whenever you post a recipe here, please put it in the recipe wiki also.  It’s much easier to search then the forum.

is the intent of the recipe wiki to be more or less beers have won awards/scored well?

And when you list a recipe, always list the awards/competition/score it was in.  Some other than “Joe said it was a good recipe”

I agree with not just posting recipes for the sake of it.  The beer should be proven first I feel.  So many other forums and homebrew sites have hundreds if not thousands of recipes.  Many of which do not have any data on how the beer actually tastes let alone how it fairs in the real world.  Many recipes I have seen, it would also appear that the poster has not even actually ever brewed it themselves!!!

Let’s go for quality not quantity here.  I would rather have a skimpy well maintained list of recipes than hundreds of half hearted false starts and possible to brew someday recipes.

Hey!  If I say it was good, it was good.

Why not post all the award-winning recipes from the AHA National HBC?

Those are there for 2006 through 2009.  Grunt work like this may be an interns job, so be patient on the 2010.

I haven’t so much liked those bulk entered ones because I thought it was better if the actual person posted the recipe so, if you wanted to discuss one, you’d know who to talk to but then I looked at some of mine and realized that, unless you put something in yourself, nowhere does it identify the submitter so…  never mind.

There are some here who have one or more (thinking of Gordon) recipes on that link.  The winners are identified by name, as these are the recipes as they were published in Zymurgy.  Not every winner is active on the forum, so you can view that as plus or minus.

:wink:
sorry Joe :wink:

I do not enter competitions.
Would saying that blatz or bluesman liked it count?

Thanks!  Didn’t know where to go to look.  I never go over to the other parts of AHA.  I’ve got the AHA Forum on my browser’s favorite’s bar, anyway.

Same here, we don’t believe in paying somebody to drink our beer just for some score based on what that person(s) liked that very moment.
