First recipe post, please bare with me. Looking for thoughts or possible improvements.
Long story short, my friends demanded a gluten free beer with high alcohol. How could I say no? Came up with this recipe after a fair amount of research.
Designed this recipe to be on the malty/sweet side balanced with a light (30-40 IBU) hop profile. Realizing most of the GUs going in would be fermented dry, I added the maltodextrin and toasted GF oatmeal to hopefully add some body. Haven't brewed it yet, waiting for the oats to "waft".
Alright, I'm done boring you with my thoughts.
Extract/Additions:
6 lbs Sorghum Extract (White) 60 min
3 lbs Dried Rice Extract 60 min
1 lb Maple Syrup 5-0 min (Infused with 1/2 vanilla bean)
1 lb Candi Syrup D-45 5-0 min
8 oz. Maltodextrin 60 min
Steeping Grain:
2 lbs Toasted Oatmeal
Hops:
1 oz Kent 60 min
.5 oz Kent 30 min
.5 oz Kent 15 min
1 oz Saaz 5 min
Secondary Additions:
2 oz Bourbon Chunks 7 - 10 days
1/2 Vanilla Bean
Not exactly sure if the bourbon will be noticeable. Kinda a prayer in the wind recipe if you know what I mean.
Please let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Hodges
