So wine makers have been using this to improve mouthfeel so can it be used for beer? It supposedly smooths out the flavor and make the drink fuller. It can in large doses add sweetness but otherwise it's tasteless and odorless.
You would need somewhere between 10mg/ml-20mg/ml, so that's 190-380g per keg. Maybe less if you have a high concentration glycerol producing yeast and/or other mouthfeel promoting ingredients/practices.
I am considering it as a substitute for lactose in sweet stout in an attempt to get crazy body and viscosity.
Thoughts? I am tempted to pull the trigger on a 1L 99.9% purity stuff on ebay and try it as a post fermentation additive.
