So I've got a friend who needs Gluten Free. Her birthday is coming up and this is my present to her. I got this kit:
http://www.homebrewers.com/product/ALP1050/Gluten-Free-Honey-Ale-Beer-Kit.html
it arrived this past weekend. going to be doing it up tonight.
Looks pretty straight forward. Is there anything I need to take into consideration that is different from regular brewing? I've got an ale pail that hasn't been used, so there will be no cross contamination or anything. not sure if thats something i need to worry about in the future. if so, i can just keep this one strictly for GF.
also, i've heard from regular beer drinkers who have brewed GF that the taste is horrible (please don't bash me, i'm new to this GF stuff) to a beer drinker, but when thats all you can have, its better than nothing. Is there anything I can do to this kit that will make it more enjoyable? While she has to be GF, i don't want her to have to choke it down, so if i can make this kit enjoyable with just a few modifications, that would be ideal.
Thanks a lot.
