Finally making the switch to gluten free brewing. I've been watching the threads here and I think i've got enough knowledge. Thanks everyone. I've been out of brewing for 2 years since I developed a sensitivity to wheat and barley. No problems with millet so far. So to make the switch I...

Kinda Sad: The folks at CMC didn't respond at all to me email. I've never run a business where I had the luxury of not responding to a customer / potential customer. I'm presuming they are doing pretty well. And as I said in the letter, we are a market that probably isn't worth their time. :(

sent this to tim at colorado malting: I'm I small business manager. We occasionally get criticism for our pricing. Folks don't realize how expensive it is just operationally to keep our business going. Let along our costs of goods sold. So I understand pricing. Also, I am presuming...

Hey Neumema: sorry this didn't turn out. I'm really hoping you can figure out what went wrong. I'm about to embark on a SIMB (single infusion Millet beer ;) I too saw that EC Kraus recommends 2TSP/ gallon. I thought that was a lot, given that millet has some diastatic power. But with your...

Temp control is the secret to that beer

Hallertau. W/ white labs 830. that's an amazing yeast. Temp controlled at 55f. OG of 1.055.

Except for the cascade it looks a lot like a Munich I used to brew. Thx!

Can u provide the grain bill details and enzymes u used?

This is great news Chris!

Chris: the price is high for the grains, and shipping is a killer. I agree with subsequent posts that 1)CMC and Grouse can't really be concerned about the home brew market; 2) Some bigger maltster might be in the future. Also, I'd be happy to go in with anybody on a bulk buy but geography...

Chris: That's great news. Glad your first all grain turned out well. Based on your experience, today I contacted Colorado malting. I had gotten a quote for pale millet from them in 2013: $1.98 / lb. now they are selling through a brew shop and wow! Price jump to around $2.60/lb Crystal is $5...

Chris. How did this batch turn out? Thx!

Thx for documenting!

Thank you!

++ on that. I am an experienced brewer who developed an allergy to barley. I'm watching glutarded-chris's experiments with alacrity! I'm on Team Glutarded, 100%. I think there are a lot of folks -- like me-- on the sidelines watching and hoping :) Thank ya'll for the hard work!

Jim: Yes! That's exactly what I was looking for. I very much appreciate your help.

John: Can you explain your technique as If I were 5 years old? I'm a pretty experienced all grain brewer and I am definitely not groking what is going on here. I am presuming that you are (or that you are planning on) mashing in at 150-152F. Then you are raising the mash temperature to...

Ricemaltster and Jay: Thank you. I've read this entire thread and I'm very interested in brewing the pale ale with the grain bill detailing 18#s pale rice plus adjuncts. In the brew schedule it states the mash temp as 152F, but later on in the thread you mention that you do a decoction...

Does anyone have any experience / tips for brewing a 100% oat smash? Recipes? Flavors? Off Flavors? Yeast recs? Anything will help. I've including a brief survey gleaned from the googles. Thanks! ---Background I've got it. A weird sensitivity to wheat, barley, and related grains. My...
