Rice solids

[jwyz1960]

I am having a problem finding rice solids at my local homebrew shop. Can it be made from store bought rice? How do you process it? Any help is appreciated.

It is rice syrup solids, essentially the equivalent of dried malt extract only produced from rice. You can simply use cooked rice added to the grain bill if you are mashing. For extract only brewing you could use sugar or the lightest malt extract available. This is not that uncommon of an ingredient. If your LHBS does not have they should certainly be able to order it or you can find it at one of the popular homebrew supply websites.

I'm doing all grain. Mash tum. Thank you this saved me. Read in the net to add to boil. I like adding to the mash better.
Thank you.
