How does one go about finding colour, extract %, and moisture of Quinoa, Millet and Buckwheat to input into BeerAlchemy? And can you malt your own?

No, and yes. There is a thread on AHB about a guy doing just this!

I'm not sure about finding extract % and moisture for these, but the colour would depend on how long you roast it.

 

I have successfully malted buckwheat and amaranth and brewed a really nice ale with them. You can't get millet in NZ that has not been treated, so any stuff you buy in the shops won't malt.

 

Gluten Free brewing is really more of a trial and error thing for me. So if you are going to give anything a go please keep us informed, I would be very interested in any results you get.

 

Here are two threads that you should have a look at.

I have made the malting box that is recommended on this site and it works really well.
