So I looked up Steve Piatz from the reference on the Chris Colby Sour Beer show: http://byo.com/feature/1230.html
And Jamil was talking about Raj Apte:

Both really good articles, and they fill in gaps in Chris and Jamil's shows. Example, Jamil talked about stopping the Cal Ale yeast around 1.020, but Steve Piatz adds Malto-Dextrin powder instead of doing that. Interesting play there since Jamil also mentions that he pitches the bugs after the Cal Ale is done in order to get a consistent sourness, where it seems that Steve uses the Malto-Dextrin to do that such that the bugs have the same amount of food to produce the sourness. Raj has some points that kind of complete the picture too.
Good stuff TBN!!!
