Getting Homebrew tested for actual IBU's

[Yankeehillbrewer]

I've heard JZ mention this a couple of times on Brew Strong & The Jamil Show. Is shipping beer off to get tested something that is available to all Homebrewers? Any idea of the cost that might be involved? I'd love to know what my actual utilization is, so I could adjust my recipes.

Thanks, YHB

Once a year White Labs holds "Big QC Day" where you can send in 2 beers for $129 and get like $500 worth of analysis done on it. 2010 results are here, I'm not sure what month it happens but keep your eyes open for 2011.

Denny conn is another person to contact directly he has had it done a few times not sure where he sends them off to.
