Welcome @Jrscale
Check out recipes for Brut IPA. @bracconiere usually has good advice for making very low carb beer. And some interesting low carb bread recipes.

interesting

yeah i add glucoamylase to my beer, about all it takes for low carb beer...and i find as long as you're using a decent 'normal' recipie, and not trying to make macro light, with pilsner malt and rice...light beer still has body....


and as far as my bread...i always ask questions? on how to get a good rise mixing bean flour with vital wheat gluten? and i never get an answer? but i do have some successful projects, like red bean cinnamon rolls, navy bean pita pockets, split pea NOODLE soup....

Welcome! I drink ~250gs ethanol, and still manage to meet all my nutritional needs. my liver hasn't exploded yet, and i've been doing it for 17-18 years.....




(oh, i weighed in at 174lbs this morning...so i can give diet advice, if you have the courage to listen! big grocery likes their profits!)

well, i'd go into more detail...but gluco will get you from 1.0xx to like .995...not much carbs left.....and WAY better then whiskey! BEER, it has vitamins! (folate & niacin mostly)
