Hey everyone, I have google'd this topic and come up with a few pretty good sources (sillyyaks of AU, and BYO), but I still would like to hear from someone directly who has malted sorghum or any other GF grains (buckwheat, millet, amaranth), and what results they had. If anyone, I mean...

So, As some of you may (or may not) have seen, I have attempted 2 GF beers so far, the first one, with mostly sorghum extract, and the second one with mostly tapioca extract. The fermentation seems to take off quickly (within hours of pitching yeast DRY), but it then decides to start lagging...

I just wanted to get that off my chest! I tasted the leftovers and it tastes ten times better than any of the commercial GF brews, and I am excited. Now, I get paid on Thursday, so I guess my next brew is going to have to be this weekend.

So, I just transferred my first batch from primary which is a 6 gallon bucket, to secondary which is a glass carboy. There is a yeast cake left in primary which is left from 2 packets of safale US-05. It is still sitting in the primary with an airlock at about 65 deg. F. I was wondering what I...
