Brewing A Low Calorie Beer : Home Brew Hints Posted: 24 Apr 2011 09:01 PM PDT In recent times the low calorie beer has gotten a lot of attention. The main reason is that people are trying to be healthier but they don’t want to give up drinking beer. Beers that are low calories usually have fewer calories and give up some flavor. By brewing your own low calorie beer, you can have a healthy drink without sacrificing the flavor too much. There are several ways to homebrew a low calorie beer. The easiest way to make your brew low calorie is to edit any recipe that you enjoy. One common way to edit the recipe is to add more water before putting the wort into the fermenter. Another easy way to take off calories from your homebrew is to add less malt during the process. Keep in mind that the malt, grain, and hops all have calories to them. By lessening any of these ingredients, you will be taking off some calories but at the same time you will be making a slightly less flavorful beer. Another thing you can do to pretty much any recipe is to add Beano. It may sound a little strange but the Beano convert a lot of carbs from the yeast, which results in less calories. It will give your beer a slightly crisper taste, something that you would taste in a light beer. When adding Beano to your brew, crush 3 tablets and add at the same time as you would add the yeast. Much like everything in brewing, you need to be sanitary when doing this. Do not touch the tablets when crushing them. Use clean utensils to transfer the powder to your beer.
