Any body know how to make non alcoholic beer?
My thoughts were to use half the ingredients of a normal batch enough to get fermentation but end up with an abv of maybe around 2 or 3. Then heat after to fermentation to 180, I heard that Alcohol boils at approx172 but water boils at approx 212 so the alcohol should evaporate and leave the rest.
I have no idea how long to heat it and would hate to have to stop every 5 mins cool down the batch and check it with the hydrometer.
I would think getting the FG as close to the OG would be the best way, or would the FG actually be lower because there's less sugar in the solution?
would heating it this way kill the yeast so I cannot prime it in the bottle like a normal batch?
Am I total lost on this one?
