I used grocery oatmeal-- quaker oats. I just bottled it and I tasted the un-carbonated beer--although it did not that milk shake thickness that lactose has, it was "silky".. couple of weeks from now, we will see if it worked.

I was also wondering about adding sugar when dry hopping or late flavor additions to create/replace the CO2. I have been doing that for a while but do not know if there is value added.

Daughter is lactose-intolerant. Trying to brew her a batch of chocolate milk stout for the holidays. Want a slightly sweet (not chocolate syrup), some toasty elements with that nice mouthfeel. I assume that oatmeal needs to be in the mash (never used it). Does anyone have a tested recipe?THX

I brew 2.5 gallon batches. Due to the logistics in my home, I brew stove top so pulleys are not an option either. Most batches I can do all grain, but once it gets over 6 lbs grain dry, I also substitute DME.

i may have missed something- was there supposed to be some oatmeal in it? I am trying to make a chocolate stout lactose-free and was interested in asking if you got that thicker mouthfeel and some residual sweetness that I think of in a sweet chocolate/coffee stout. Thx

I think I am going to add at bottling. Doubt that putting it in the boil or during fermentation will do anything positive.

Thanks for your response. I am going to do some web searching and see if I can find some recipes using amoretti purees and see how much they used in a typical saison/wheat/etc.

I sent a message to the company through the chat function. Told them was a home brewer brewing small batches- here is the response: Sure thing! I can give you our starting points for our Brew Gas Series: We recommend between .04-.07% application rate by liquid volume. This generally equates...

These do not have cannabis extract (i.e., no buzzy- they are legal in states that marijuana is not legal). They are flavorings-and the website makes them sound like hops (dank, pineapple, citric, wood, earthy, spicy). No direction on how to use them-

I was gifted a small bottle of Wild Strawberry Puree- now trying to figure out a recipe. Any suggestions-- thinking maybe a wheat beer. Not a fan of real sweet fruity beer.

I received some samples of botanical derived terpenes from Abstrax. Has anyone used these in brewing beer? I am trying to figure out how to use it in small batches. Samples included pineapple express, king louie, SFV, Blackberry cash, super lemon, gelato
