Hey All,
I'm still fairly new to brewing, getting ready to transition from extract to AG. Recently, I have discovered I have quite a gluten intolerance (not to be confused with the full blown allergy). I would like to try GF brewing, more out of curiosity than necessity. Currently crawling through this sub-forum, soaking up what I can. I am curious as to what everyone's GF brewing experience has been like so far.
-Are there any special considerations for GF brewing? (specifically equipment)
-How successful vs unsuccessful have you been (how forgiving)?
-What would you consider the pros/cons vs traditional ingredients?
-How limited/unlimited would you consider GF brewing to be vs traditional?
As far as recommendations...
I really enjoy Heffs, Witbiers, anything Belgian, and anything with honey. I have a feeling this is going to be tricky for me. Anyone have any (easy) recipe recommendations I could get my feet wet with? Thanks in advance for your input, Cheers!
PS - if you know of any good GF brewing books or other online resources, please share. Currently looking at the wikin page.
