November Brew Day at NTHBS

Hello everyone, November brew day will be at North Texas Homebrew Supply and we are looking for people that would like to brew that day. Please let me know if you will be brewing on Nov 4.

There will be a Brewzilla system available if you want to use or you can bring your own equipment.

Someone asked a question during our club meeting this past Tuesday if we had selected a recipe, and coincidently I received an email from AHA with a suggested recipe, in case anyone would like to try

SMaSH Sensory Blonde Ale – SMASH meaning Single Malt Single Hop!

Ingredients:

Malts
2 lb. (907 g) base malt of your choice
Hops
0.15 oz. (4 g) Cluster, 7.8% a.a. @ 60 min
Yeast
1/2 sachet (5.5 g) Fermentis SafAle US-05

Specifications:

Yield: 1 US gal (4 L)

Original Gravity: 1.046

Final Gravity: 1.010

ABV: 4.7%

IBU: 25

Efficiency: 70%

Directions:

Mash at 152°F (67°C) for 60 minutes. Use the same base malt in each batch, but use different hops, specialty malts, or different yeasts. Use 1.2 lb. of dry malt extract in place of base malt for an all-extract version.

Cheers, Marcio

Besides all NTHBA members that attended the party, Chris Daily from San Antonio Cerveceros club was also present and ended up receiving his two third place medals live. Congratulations to the NTHBA brewers Terry Olinger, Reed Smollar, Mark Rendon for your winning medals.

Thanks for all NTHBA members that entered the competition and those that volunteered for judging, we could not have done without you.

Thanks for our 2023 Limbo Director Bill with the overall competition organization and Jimmy “The Data Guy” to make sure the backend system was properly working creating a great customer experience for the entrants to register/pay/check results online.

Last but not least – A Big Thanks for Brian & Melinda hosting this event, dedicating extra time on preparation and cleaning, making the swimming pool available during the 100F+ heat, smoking ribs, sausage, brisket, chicken and more – THANK YOU.
