ChristinaS1 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Hi Everyone, Beginners often start out using Brew Enhancers. One of the first things they are advised to do on the forum, to improve the quality of their beer, is to switch to using malt extracts. Well now there is another reason to switch: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23251695 Turns out maltodextrin is bad for our gut and microbiome. People with Crohn's and conditions linked to leaky gut (there is a long list of those, getting longer all the time) may want to stop using maltodextrin. Cheers, Christina.

Potatoes Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Thanks Christina, Is there any maltodextrin in the coopers kit cans? cheers, dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Von Blotto Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 No, it is in the brew enhancers though. I often see it listed in the ingredients on various foods as well. I haven't used the stuff since my kit days around 7 years ago, but I suppose I still consume it in food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
