Low ABv brew?
dean:
Anybody got a recipe for low abv brewws? I got at family member that "shouldn't" drink but I usnerstand their desire. Holy cow, I drink a cedent amount sometimes myself but I can control it so I don't drink all thi time or at least everydya and from when I get up. My family has a hsitory of it for sure, whose dowesn't? Soorry for the poor spelling, I'm felling pretty good. :D
Thirsty_Monk:
There is a clam to fame that alcohol contribute flavor to the beer.
Flavor threshold is about 3% ABV so you could go as low as 1030 OG.
English Mild or Scottish 60 on low end...
dean:
How do the commercial breweries make no alcohol beer (under 1/2%)... do they boil it to vaporize the alcohol after its fermented or what?
Boy I was getting trashed when I wrote that... I don't get that way much... maybe a couple of times per year. :-[ ;D
dbeechum:
Old fashioned method - vacuum boiled. low pressure drops the boil temp.
New fashioned method - close filtering
dean:
Okay, I'm with you on pulling a vacuum, what about any bacteria leftover in the wort? I thought we hit 212* to sterilize as well as hold it condensing to a higher SG. (not forgetting hop utilization)
Close filtering, I've heard of it but what is it in a nutshell?
