Sigafoos

Recipes 

Crash cooling and pouring slowly won't get all the yeast out. Unless you filter it, yeast will be there.

But yeah, go see a doctor instead of consulting Dr Jackass MD.

Yeast will never kill anyone. I am sure pple of ancient past all got used to yeasty beer. No reason why we can't in modern times.

If you are rrrrreally concerned, then go see the family doc but even medical experts in these cases may not truly give a convincing answer.

People in ancient past also used to eat peanuts, but that doesn't mean some people aren't horribly allergic to them.

i suspect it is not the yeast but the fiber associated with quality homebrew. a litre of beer will give you anywhere between 20-60% of your RDA of fiber. the yeast itself is not bad for you, brewer's yeast has been used as a nutritional supplement for decades. good source of chromium and b-complex vitamins.

It is seriously interesting to know that peanut allergy is really unheard of in many places. Seems like an isolated problem in North America and Europe.

But anyways, it is true that we can't rule out any allergy to the yeast but yeast is not just present in beer. There are other products that is also yeast containing. If there is no problem with those, then yeast allergy is a serious doubt.

Great, thanks to you all! I will try crash cooling next. If this does not work I'll switch to kegging. The problem for me with kegging is that I live in extreme rural New Mexico, and getting CO2 is not an easy task.

sounds good. I think I'll try to see an allergist just to be sure.
Is filtering that difficult to do? What kind of gear does this require?
