Gluten Free Beer

[DEMPSEY]

Whitelabs produce a clearing solution called "Clarity Ferm",which allows a brewer to brew a standard beer and then using this clearing agent,reduce the gluten to approximately 20ppm. Has anybody ever used this and how did it work out.

I recently took a tour of the UCC brewery.
On that day She wasn't around but the other brewing professor was telling us that's one of their major areas of research.

Great to hear.  I never knew they had a brewery there - is that part of their food science course?

Most of the students dont even know its there.
Its a beautiful bit of kit and standing idel most of the time.
AFAIK there are only 2 students and the 2 professors using it, I think it's used as an extra after food science or some such.
