No yeast (even wine yeast) will eat ALL of the sugars, at some point the energy required to find sugars

And please remember that the idea that Beano Tablets would be a useful brewing additive was a joke by Ashton Lewis in BYO (IIRC) and he has since apologized for it.

Frank Zappa based a musical career on The Complete Works of Edgard Varse, Volume One...
Varse years later admitted he meant that book to be a joke..

I have had a high SG beer get stuck on me. Beano and LV-1118 finished it. Almost 3 month ferment. After a couple months of bottle conditioning it had a nice head and light mouth but not watery.

Have you tried Beano? Don't rule it out. Amylase is a natural enzyme. One of the problems with malt extract is its higher final gravity due to unfermentables...hmmm, a little beano and a few more weeks voila! very efficient. Wanna see a pour?

I don't know if this thread was from a diabetics point of view. If it is, I would stick with commercial brew that has a predictable amount of carbohydrates to adjust insulin levels to.

Home brew runs the gamut in leftover sugars. I just offered a way to reduce sugars in beer. We aren't talking style, mouthfeel, body...we're talking sugar.
