I had a Green's Dubbel Dark Ale last night, and it is by far the best gluten free beer I have ever had. There's really nothing you can do to replace the mouthfeel so it was a tad thin and it was a little sweet, but great dark rich flavors.
Can I use aluminum tubing to make a wort chiller? I just got 50' of 1/2" tubing for free and thought about making one. Any chemical interactions or other issues with this material coming into contact with wort?
Thanks.
The other day I saw a really informative chart on the different temperatures for different grains but I can't find it anywhere now. I was sure it was on this forum. Does anyone know where that is?
Thanks!
Kind of GF related, kind of beer related. My wife and I went to a Mellow Mushroom pizza joint over the weekend...really good gluten free pizza; you don't have to call ahead or anything, it's right there in the main menu, and the staff knew exactly what we were talking about. They also have a...
I started a concoction this weekend with Oatmeal, Teff, Brown Rice, Agave Nectar, bananas, and cane sugar with 7oz of hops.
I'll post the recipe whether it's a success or not...I give it a 50/50 chance of tasting anything like what I imagine.:mug:
Is there any downside to using extra amylase? The Amylase Enzyme Formula I have says 1 tsp per 5 gallons. I'm mashing roasted teff and oatmeal at different temperatures to see if I can get as much out of them as possible; is there any reason not to add a bit more enzyme to make sure the job is...
I'm thinking of stovetop mashing some rice and/or teff, oatmeal, etc. I have amylase enzyme formula, but I was just reading that it is only alpha and not beta. I also read that Beano is beta-amylase. Has anyone used a combination of these to mash any grains? It seems to me (being the uneducated...
My wife and I made a rice dish over the weekend using jasmine rice...my god that stuff has an amazing flavor. Kind of nutty, buttery, floral maybe.
Has anyone ever brewed with it? I would love to get some of that flavor in a beverage but don't know if it's just too subtle and delicate to...
This is my most recent label I created for a weird gluten free belgian IPA kinda thing I made. I've been told it makes people uncomfortable...which is what I was going for.:)
My wife has a gtuten free blog with all kinds of GF links, recipies, and information as well as a couple of my GF beer recipies. If anyone is interested it's http://lilovesdavid.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2009-07-13T18%3A05%3A00-04%3A00&max-results=8
Someone mentioned ginger beer in another thread so I wanted to throw this out there before I forget. I made a delicious alcoholic ginger beer using most of the normal general brewing methods. I'll post the recipe later.
I tried to emulate the ginger beers (carbonated soft drink) I have had...
I can't tell you how happy I am to find this site. I've been brewing gluten free for a little over a year now. I used to just make wine but my wife (who was diagnosed with celiac disease about 4 years ago) mentioned how she missed beer, so thus started my experimental journey into GF brewing...
