What a great time we had at Black Diamond Brewing in Concord! Many thanks to Justin and crew for hosting us and giving a great tour of the facilities. Congratulations to all the brewers that entered the Black Diamond Pro-Am GABF contest. From looking at a few scoresheets, some great beers were in this comp. There were, however, some standout beers that made the top 4: Coffee Stout from Tom Weber

This month’s meeting will be on May 18th, due to Memorial day. It will be held at Black Diamond Brewery in Concord. (2470 Bates Avenue, Concord, CA 94520) The meeting will start at the same time, 6:30 pm. You can come early and enjoy some Black Diamond beers and Justin will give a couple of tours of the brewery as soon as members get there. We will not be having the BOTM table, however, we will announce the winner of the Black Diamond-DOZE GABF Pro-Am contest.

The April meeting on Monday the 27th will feature a brief talk from Matt Sager about his experiences at the recent CBC (craft brewers conference). We will also have an open Q&A session about yeast and yeast health. If you reuse, or harvest your yeast, please be prepared to let us know how and why you do it. If you have a stir plate, please bring it in for a show and tell table.

We have new options for DOZE gear! Hats are one size, and have already been ordered – hopefully here in time for pick up at the April meeting. Hoodies and Work Shirts are available for ordering. We’ll leave the store open for a while allowing you to order your desired size and color. I’ll then combine all of the club orders and send off to our vendor for a single run.

Next Monday, the 30th, we have a meeting at the usual place and time (Lindsay at 6:30pm). Several members have expressed an interest in learning about RIMS (Recirculating Infusion Mash System) for their all grain systems. In the first half of the meeting I would like to have an open Q&A session on this topic. If you have a RIMS tube that you can bring to the meeting, please do so.
