I got some bad news a couple weeks back, and the second opinion today confirmed it. I need to cut gluten from my diet, but I was thinking maybe I could continue to drink beer if I could find a way to use a lot less malted barley/wheat and a lot more oats/rice/corn/sourgum etc.
I have done a fair bit of reserch into GF brewing and am not all that interested in malting my own exotic grains.
I was thinking if I use a bit of a high power grain like Galaxy, add some promalt and use some dextrose alone with a heap of unmalted oats/rice/corn depending on style I could still make some decent brews.
One thing I have not figured out is how I would make spec malts, but that could always come later.
If anyone has any info/experience with a brew like this, or has a good reason why it would not work please let me know.
Cheers,
Kev
