Gluten free lager / pilsener
Hi guys, I'm about to start brewing some beers again after a long lay off due to one thing or another. I have everything I need kit wise , can someone point me in the direction of some recipes or worthwhile reading on the subject ? Thanks in advance

Re: Gluten free lager / pilsener
If you want to go gluten free (reduced), the best suggestion I can offer is to use some Clarex enzyme in the fermenter. Malt Miller sell this in small bottles - you only need about 0.5ml in a 23L/5Gallon batch. I think they call it “NBS Clarity”.
I have not personally proven that this delivers gluten free beer, but I know HBers who use this and then give the beer to friends/relatives who are gluten sensitive/intolerant and the reports are that they are able to drink the beers with no ill effects.
