I finally got it through my head NOT to boil neither DME nor LME!

Anyone have ant experience using Peanut Butter (PB2) added to your wort?
Dunno if it should be boiled or just steeped???

To use peanut butter in my PBS (Peanut Butter Stout aka Reeses Peanut Butter Beer) I take the jar of peanut butter and place a paper towel on it. It will gradually wick off the oil. Keep changing the towel until the oil is mostly gone and the PB is a solidified mass. Keeping it in a very warm place will help that.

Once the oil is all gone, toss the whole jar in. Sadly, unless you use a big jar, the flavor is hard to detect.

Add some chocolate malt in, even some dry cocoa powder and let it go. Do try to skim the oils off in the boil however.

Give it a shot Gunny, I think you will like it.

Hope this helped.

Cheers,

Can you make beer with just DME? It looks like Beer Tang. The stuff in my local supply store has no directions, and my “cookbook” has it listed only as an extra ingredient. Would you just reconstitute it, pretend it was malt syrup and proceed from there?
