My buddy wants to start brewing with me. His wife was also recently diagnosed as allergic to gluten (celiac, I think), so I thought it would earn him some browny points to make her a gluten free beer.
Any body have a gluten free recipe they stand by? I found this one:

Doesn't flaked rice and flaked corn have to be mashed? How are you gaining anything by steeping the rice and corn?
