100% corn beer? Amylase?

[drummerguysteve]

I hope itcomes out well for you. There will definitely be nowhere for the hops to hide. Obviously no maltiness here!
For my taste, I think you'll have way too much hops at 30 ibus.

What if, and I'm totally just throwing it out there, you air pop your corn, then mash with amylase?

 

[wyzazz]

Wondering why you would air pop it first instead of sending it through a mill??

 

[drummerguysteve]

I had used cracked corn, which won't pop, and doesn't need milling. However, I know the cream of three crops beer uses popped corn. I'd like to try it sometime. If the corn keeps some form, it would make laudering very nice.

Actually it uses flaked corn. Ordered in bulk from my grain supplier.

I don't know about 1oo% corn, but I made some "Deer Corn Beer" for the deer camp last year. It was 40% corn, 10% rice,and two row barley. Deer Corn BMC. We had a good time about it..

Sorry about that biermuncher, I should have used the search first. I'll find the popcorn beer next time I'm near a computer and post the link. Its hard to quote on the phone. I guess I was combining two beers I want to try.
I wouldnt recommend a large batch of all corn, but it was a pretty fun experiment.

Conroe's Popcorn Cream.

That's what I should have referenced. But by all means, try the cream of three crops too!

It is 100% malted corn for sure.Smashed up rather than ground.
If I go with 10gr(5%) at 60mins,how much would I add at 10 mins?

 

[badlee]

Well,thanks for all the input,you were all a great help!
I brewed and went with a total of 12gr of Cluster: 4gr@60, 4gr@30 and 4gr@10.
I will rack to secondary by friday.

If you search youtube for user Bearded and Bored he made a beer with green malted popcorn. Apparently a lengthy boil will cook out any grassy note from the green malt. That was the entire diastatic source of all the ingredients.

i'd imagine beef jerky, or vinegar at this point!

Welcome!


edit and dry heat and wet heat are different beasts, 12 hours at 150f dry heat will produce a completely different flavor then wet heat at 212f will....
