Allergy & Free From Show 2014 (Kensington Olympia)


Bob Moore of Bob's Red Mill Flours
  • Met up with a lovely and insightful gluten-free blogger based in Berlin and spoke with some wonderfully innovative promoters and suppliers. The folks at CELIA Lager, promoting their Czech beer, very patiently explained their process of de-glutenising barley malt. Quite carbonated but it certainly makes for a good gluten-free summer beer.
  • Met the man behind (and face on) Bob's Red Mill Flours - a company long known for its range of flours but also commendable for its practice of processing and packaging their flours in a quality controlled gluten-free environment. Purchased some sorghum flour and trusty tapioca flour. 
    Scott Farms Sweet Potato Chips
  • Scott Farms Sweet Potato Chips were hands down my favourite acquisition of the day. Wonderfully simple in concept but masterfully executed.
  • Greens Gluten Free Beers were another great exhibitor with an abundance of flavours to sample but unfortunately not purchase on the spot. The IPA and Dry Hopped Lager were pretty good and have now inspired me to discuss further with some home-brewer friends about brewing a batch of gluten-free beer. Enter sorghum!


Next year: bring more hands.
