How is Gluten reduced beer made and what is it?
Gluten reduced beer is made with gluten containing grains like barley and wheat. The beer is treated with a chemical that cleaves the protein chains into smaller bits. It is then tested with the ELISA test which was not meant for fermented (hydrolyzed) solutions. The test looks for certain gluten protein chains, counting ppm every time a chain is found. The test cannot recognize protein chains that are cut up by the chemical. So the glutinous protein levels are miscalculated. This chemical does not "remove" or "reduce", but works around the testing capabilities.
