First SMaSH attempt was created by Cherry1
Thought I would give a SMaSH IPA a try to see how it goes.
Obviously the recipe was basic and the hops were what I had on hand.
6kg US Pale Malt
35g Mosaic 60min
15g Mosaic whirlpool
50g Mosaic dry hopped
US-04
Cracked the first bottle yesterday after 5 days of carbonation (always struggle to wait).
On Beersmith's style guide comparison it is on the lighter side for an IPA (47.7 IBU, 5.7% ABV and 10.2 EBC although I think its a bit darker than that) certainly drinkable, but it is a bit bland.
Would definitely have been better if I had an extra 50-100g of Mosaic to dry hop with.
Live and learn.

Yeah personally I would of reduced the 60min and upped the whirlpool or flameout addition. A bigger dry hop would of helped too. DId you whirlpool hot or cold? and how long?

Brewing a familiar Dark Mild later today. (hint: Was the bastard tired? Or was he run over by a tire (tyre). No one really knows). One thing for sure. It will be a treat when done. Cheers!
