    Any Advice on tinctures?

    Thanks everyone for the info -- will be adding a tincture of 151, cinnamon and vanilla bean to my 1st AG recipe (Beer Nog) this week!

    Wow, you guys are great -- thank you! So if I do the following: 1) omit the lactose 2) skip the maltodextrin 3) add some extra crystal malt (what, like 1lb for 5gal?) 4) mash at 158, and 5) use White Labs 002 ...does anyone think this wouldn't be killer? Pretty sure SWMBO will...

    That makes a lot of sense -- thank you for your input brewski09! I'll give it a shot! :rockin: Would you keep the amount at 1lb MD for a 5gal batch? Also, might you be able to shed any light on what substituting maltodextrin for lactose would add/take away from the flavor and/or body...

    1st post here. 1st all-grain brew day approaching. Would love to pop my cherry making this but my SWMBO has a severe lactose allergy. Is maltodextrin a suitable substitute? 1lb / 5 gal? What might be the profile ramifications? Very interested to hear the forum's thoughts on this. Thank you.
