    taking a shot at a GF extract Stout

    Interesting brewdog. I’ve used clarity fern a lot and it does work for me. (I’ve tested inconclusive for celiac). Everything I’ve read though, and used it is pitchined it with the yeast. It’s an enzyme that I would guess be denatured with high heat.

    taking a shot at a GF extract Stout

    I’ve tried with roasted buckwheat groats that I malted. And with strait up black strap molasses. Enjoyed them both but nothing like a real stout. I’ve found I can use barley if i add clarityferm to the fermenter when I pitch the yeast

    Advise request on a Special Pilsner

    Hi, My wife and I traveled to the Interlaaken region of Switzerland and enjoyed a lager made by Rugen Brau. I think it was their Spezial beer. (there was a language issue with the server in the small caffe.) It was brewed there and it had a very reminiscent flavor of Ritz crackers. I've...

    GF Belgian with great reviews

    T-58 is it. I went and got some more.... The head took at least 3 weeks to develop. I was disappointed at two weeks but at three the beer was totally different. ( by that I mean better)

    sweet potato beer

    Being a gluten free brewer I use sweet potatoes quite often. I found the easiest way to brew them is to just bake them for an hour or so and the skin comes right off. I mash them with hot water and amylase. OG is usually around 1.020 so a little light. I use either dextrose to bring it up or...

    GF Belgian with great reviews

    I think that is the yeast... I still need to go to MASH to get it. It was a Belgian yeast and dry in a pink package if I remember right. I just tried to do an zero sorghum stout, but it came out more like a porter. Tasts good but still not dark enough.

    What are your most awesome and interesting soda recipes?

    It was fantastic. The ABV was only about 2.5-3% as I didn't add any dextrose and I'm guessing because I added the torani's strawberry syrup balanced it out perfectly. I also added one packet of stevia to each bottle. I just made a 3 gal batch of it with raspberry instead because that what I had...
