I don’t quite know why I didn’t realize I’d have to individually unwrap these and it’d be a pain in the ass, but there’s no going back now. Blue razz jolly rancher distillate soon. I’ve also got my sweet potato beer fermenting (it’s supposed to be pumpkin and sweet potato but the pumpkin I bought was rotting on the inside, so I just rolled with what I have). I also ended up making 80 dog treats from some of the spent grains from the beer, if pupper is happy I’m happy. Over all I think I’m coming back from my one year brewing break with a vengeance.
Hi, sorry, do your spent-grain dog treats include the hops? Apologies if you already know and have avoided this issue, but hops can be horrifically toxic to dogs. I’ve treated dogs in the hospital for malignant hyperthermia due to hops ingestion, and it’s not pretty. Again, apologies if you already know and have mitigated this. If that’s the case, please just treat this as a well-intentioned PSA for anyone else who might be reading this thread and enjoy your day.
I am aware of the toxicity of hops when it comes to dogs (hours pitting up a fence around my hop plant will confirm lol), but I also appreciate the heads up and it’s always good to have the info out there for those stumbling across it! That being said, I only use the grains from the mashing process, well before hops have come into contact with the wort. Thanks for putting the info out for others who may not know and keeping all the boopable snoots safe though :)
I love to hear it. Thanks for the recipe and for helping keep doggies safe!
