I'm goinf to try thatIt's not the dishwasher necessarily- it's supposed to be Jet Dry or other rinse agents that are blamed for the head retention issues.
To check to see if it's the glass, you can do a saltwater "scrub". Just moisten the glass, sprinkle with table salt, and then "scour" the glass inside and around the rim with the salt and then rinse very well. That will take off any residue that may be on your beer glasses.
I was my glassware in the dishwasher, but don't use Jet Dry and make my own dish detergent so I don't have any issues.
Ya it doesnt happen with every beer and when it does it still tatste good and is carbonated but no head or lacing....better pbw my bottles before next time. My keg beers head seems fineI often rinse glasses before pouring beer, but not consistently at all. I've never had a clean glass destroy the head. Same thing before I kegged...never had an issue with glassware and head retention.
If it's bottle to bottle, I'd suspect the bottle conditioning. You may be getting inconsistent carbonation and/or you may have sanitation issues there. Diacetyl can be a big factor in "dead-head" syndrome.
I think it must be whayJA was talking about... keg beer is fine in the same glasses. Gonna do a pbw wash and seeI wash my glasses in the dishwasher with jet dry and have zero issues with head retention and my beers have great lacing as well, I do rinse every glass with cold water before pouring.
Yooper how about posting that dishwasher soap recipt?....
